My Journey at PLP Academy

A beginner's story of learning web development through HTML5, accessibilty, and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) principles

Introduction

Hello! I'm a student at the Power Learn Project (PLP) Academy, starting my journey into web development. I created this page using semantic HTML5 to demonstrate what I’ve learned about structuring a web page correctly.

First Steps

In the beginning, I learned to use HTML to build web pages and learned to structure content semantically.

Challenges

One challenge I faced was understanding which tags to use and how to create accessible, SEO-friendly code. But with guidance and practice, I improved.

Breakthroughs

  • Learning semantic HTML5
  • Using accessibility features like aria labels
  • Structuring content with search engines in mind

Future Vision

I aim to become a full-stack web developer and contribute to building accessible, inclusive, and optimized websites across Africa and beyond.
