A webpage is a single document or screen of information on the internet that you can view in a web browser like Chrome, Safari, or Firefox. When you search for something online and click a link, each result takes you to a different webpage.

Think of the internet as a massive library, and webpages are like individual pages or documents in that library. Each webpage has its own unique address called a URL (you see it at the top of your browser, starting with “http” or “https”). A webpage might contain text, pictures, videos, links to other pages, or interactive elements like games or quizzes.

Webpages are written in special computer languages, mainly one called HTML, which tells your browser how to display everything: where the pictures go, what the text should look like, and how buttons should work. When you visit a webpage, your browser downloads these instructions and translates them into what you see on your screen.

A group of related webpages that belong together makes up a website. For example, a school might have a website with many different webpages: one for the calendar, one for lunch menus, one for each teacher, and so on. Each individual screen is a webpage, but together they form the school's website.
