HTML tags usually come in pairs, the ending tag is like that starting tag except that it has a slash (/) before the name. So in the original paragraph there was this code:

    <p>Welcome to My Web Page!</p>

And after modifying it to be an h1 instead of a paragraph, it should look like this:

    <h1>Welcome to My Web Page!</h1>

Note that the tag name changes in both the start and end tags, but no new tags are added.
