This video looks at three options for adding basemaps from the web to your QGIS project. Note - please always check that basemaps are licensed for your particular use!

Firstly the OpenLayers plugin, an old faithful from QGIS 2 but still not fully adapted for QGIS 3.

Next, the QuickMapServices plugin, which offers dozens of basemaps to choose from (though still with some issues).

Finally the option to connect directly to XYZ tile services so you can customise your own set of basemaps for regular use - plus where to look to find them.
