<p class="main-pg">Your paragraph content here...</p>

Replace the above "Your paragraph content here" with your own paragraph content.

Any attributes you want to add such as classes to elements, go inside the opening tag like above.

They are defined by their attribute name (in this case class) followed by an equal sign (=) and a set of quotes, single or double ("") and inside the quotes, is the value for the attribute.

More examples:

<a class="classname">Link</a>
<p class="intro">Paragraph content...</p>
<a href="linktofacebook">Facebook</a>
