 THE WORLD WIDE WEB (WWW)

Key components and concepts of the World Wide Web include:

1. Hyperlinks: Hyperlinks are clickable elements in web pages that allow users to navigate from one page
to another or even between different websites.
2. Web Pages: Web pages are individual documents that contain various types of content, such as text,
images, videos, and interactive elements. Each web page has a unique address called a URL (Uniform
Resource Locator).
3. Web Browsers: Web browsers are software applications that allow users to access and view web pages.
Examples include Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Browsers render HTML and other web technologies
to display web content.
4. Web Servers: Web servers are computers that store and serve web content to users' browsers. When you
type a URL into a browser, the browser sends a request to a web server, which then sends back the
requested web page. 27
