Explaining the purpose of Footer in HTML Technology

Footer in HTML Technology

According to [4]: The purpose of the footer element is to identify content that typically belongs at the bottom of a page or a section, that informs the reader about certain information such as contact or ownership information.

Common examples of footers include

• Authorship information, (Just like the one at the bottom of the website!)
• copyright information © Jane Doe 2020
• contact information

What I learned!

While learning about the footer element, I learned that footer is a semantic HTML element that is used to organize information like copyright, navigation links, or other userful information that belongs on the website. I learned that the elements (p) and (a) can be nested inside the footer, and by keeping these elements nested, it showed me that the HTML stays organized.
