What Are Meta tags? Meta tags are HTML tags that include all the sort of information that search engines would want to know about your site. This includes a description of your site and "keywords". When creating these keywords first of all think, what words best describe my site? Then what word would I use when searching for my site? Meta Tags are inserted just like any other HTML tag, but instead of telling the browser how to lay out the page it tells it things like, a description of the Page, who made the site and what software you used. So Why are they so important? They give search engines and directory's a description of you Page. If you don't give a discption they just use the first 20 or so words! So they use this instead of the first 20 or so words from your page. So instead of getting "welcome to my home page I hope you enjoy you stay This page was last updated (the date you submitted to the search engine)" You can get something like The name of your page is all about etc Were do they go? You put the Tag imbatween the Head commands of your page. If you have rated with RSACi this is also a Meta command. <html><head>META TAGS</head><body></body></html> Your title tag normally goes before the meta tag so that it loads quicker. What is the HTML? <meta name="keywords" content="Up to 200 charectors separated by commas"> <meta name="description" content="A short and accurate description of your site. Can be up to 1000 charectors"> <meta name="author" content="Your name"> <meta name="copyright" content="Copyright © 1999 Your name"> <meta name="generator" content="What software you used to make your site, e.g Notepad, Frontage or Dreamweaver"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="expires" CONTENT="Wed, 26 Feb 1997 08:21:57 GMT"> haven't got time to put them on your site?
