Meta tags (2)
Follow these easy steps to insert Meta tags in your pages
Your web editing program will have two display modes; Design and Code.
Normally you work in Design mode where you can see what your page will look like in browsers.
Before you start inserting Meta tags switch to the Code mode, and scroll to the very top of the page.
In the following example we will use bold to highlight the <head> tags, and this color to show you the Meta tags.
You'll see something like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>INPUT THE TITLE OF YOUR PAGE HERE </title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="description" content="this is where you describe the content of THIS page " />
<meta name="keywords" content=input keywords and keyphrases from the text in THIS page here " />
</head>
<body>
...HTML code and the text your viewers will see are are located between the <body> and </body> tags
Don't worry about this; just leave all the code alone...
</body>
</html>
Comments
As you can see all the Meta tags are located between the <head> and </head> tags.
About the title tag: In a few words tell your viewers what the page is about.
About the description tag: Describe the content of the page, and try to use keywords and key phrases from the text on the page
.
About the keywords tag: Use keywords and key phrases from the text on the page.
Separate by comma between each word or phrase like this: keyword1, keyphrase here, new key phrase, keyword2,
Use keywords and key phrases you think the viewers would use to find your site in a search engine!
Tip: Simply copy each green line and insert in the <head> section on your page, then change the red text.
If you use relevant Meta tags on EVERY page in the website you will be rewarded with better position in the search engines.
