Notice that
blank lines in an HTML document do not necessarily create blank lines on the Web
Page. You must use a line break to force new lines on your Web Page.
Blockquotes can be used by long sections of text which are quoted and need to be set apart and indented. Block Quotes have an implied line break before and after the text.

Lists: Unordered, Ordered, Definition and Nested Lists
Unordered Lists
Still other types of Lists (some browsers don't support these types of lists)
Directory list -- Like a telephone directory, a directory list appears as multiple columns across a Web page. This type of list is used to display items of equal importance in a wide, space-saving format.
Menu List --Items in a menu list display left-justified one beneath another; they contain neither numbers nor bullets, and have no hanging indent. This type of list is appropriate when displaying related items that don't have any special order.
