The head section is the first thing that the web browser receives when connecting to your site.

In the head section, the browser gets the information about the character encoding of the page, content length, content type, etc. This is handled by the web browser, and you don’t even need to know anything about it, but there are some important stuff in the head section that contains information you might actually see. It’s the web page title, the web page description, key words and so on. The <title> tag set’s the web page title, to an arbitrary length value of the specified encoding, and is in no way connected with the web page name what so ever.

What can a web page title do for you:

1. Search engines often uses the page title (among other factor) to decide what the web page is likely to be about.
2. When bookmarking a page, it is generally saved by default asthe document title.
3. Most browsers, when minimized, display the title of the currentdocument on their icon or taskbar button.It’s important, therefore, to choose a meaningful and descriptive titlefor each page that you create.

Many other elements are used in the head section of a document,

including link, meta, and script elements, although we don’t give an

account for them.
