Meta Tag Your Site

In designing a website, you will work with a lot of tags such as the Meta tags.

Examples of Meta tags that you should consider placing in your website are:

meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"
meta name="keywords" content="keyword,keyword,keyword"
meta name="description" content="A short summary about what the site is about"
meta name="robots" content="Index,Follow"

Here is a short description for the Meta tags:

1. The content specifies the information for that meta tag.
2. The keywords attribute of the tag lists the keywords for your site. When users type in a word in the search engine, your site may appear on the search results if the word used are these keywords.
   
3. The description attribute is used by search engines as the summary that will be shown below your link in the search results.
4. The robots attribute determines which pages of your website the search engines can crawl in.
   

Whether the website is just for fun or for business, take your time in finishing it. Meta tag it. Optimize it. Create elegant designs. And lastly, add useful stuff for your visitors.
