How to use <apex:outputLabel>  in Visualforce Page?

<apex:outputLabel> :
A label for an input or output field. Use this component to provide a label for a controller method that does not correspond to a field on a Salesforce object. 

Syntax:
<apex:outputLabel value="Checkbox" for="theCheckbox"/>
<apex:inputCheckbox value="{!inputValue}" id="theCheckbox"/> 

This tag supports following attributes:

Attribute	Description
accesskey	The keyboard access key that puts the label and its associated field in focus.
dir	The direction in which the generated HTML component should be read. Possible values include "RTL" (right to left) or "LTR" (left to right).
escape	A Boolean value that specifies whether sensitive HTML and XML characters should be escaped in the HTML output generated by this component. If not specified, this value defaults to true. For example, the only way to add a ">" symbol to a label is by using the symbol's character escape sequence and setting escape="false". If you do not specify escape="false", the character escape sequence displays as written.
for	The ID of the component with which the label should be associated. When the label is in focus, the component specified by this attribute is also in focus.
