HTML paragraph or HTML p tag is used to define a paragraph in a webpage. Let’s take a simple example to see how it work. It is a notable point that a browser itself add an empty line before and after a paragraph. An HTML <p> tag indicates starting of new paragraph.

This is first paragraph.
This is second paragraph.
