When you connect your computer to the internet, you can easily log on to the World Wide Web. We do this with the help of apps called browsers they allow you to search through the numerous web pages online and view content from across the world. The browsers work through servers translating different HTTP into a web page.

For instance, when you input a HTTP you send a command to your web server that in turn gives access to you allowing you to view the web page. It is essential that all web pages support the HTTP protocol, allowing the entire net to work synchronously.
