Perkembangan dunia blogger saat ini terus meningkat. Banyak para blogger baru mulai bertebaran di internet dengan tujuan hanya sekadar hobi, membangun komunitas atau untuk keperluan marketing.

Ada kalanya ketika kita menulis artikel dengan karakter spesial tertentu tidak disediakan pada penyedia blogger gratis semisal blogspot dan wordpress.
Untuk membuat karakter spesial dan huruf aksen pada halaman web/blog kita harus membuat kode tertentu pada kode HTML (Hyper Text Markup Languange). Kemudian browser akan menampilkan simbol atau spesial yang kamu inginkan.

Karakter yang paling banyak digunakan telah dikumpulkan oleh Organisasi Standard Intrenasional (ISO) Latin Alphabet No.1.
Berikut beberapa kode karakter spesial HTML :
