| Step By Step How To Create Meta Tags For Your
Website First of all
keep in mind that each of your website pages need a unique meta tag.
The meta tag is just some code that you place in your website html
source. Whatever tool you use to create your website files, you can
look at the html source.
The html source is not what visitors see, but it is the code that helps web browsers like Internet Explorer and so on, to convert that code into words, fonts, graphics and everything else you see when you visit your website. So it is the code that browsers require to display your website. Even though meta tags will not give too much of a help in improving search engine rankings, they are very important for other reasons. Now, the meta tags are placed in this html source as well. Search engine spiders, which are software that visit your website to index pages and check it out, will look out for this code. They use this code to display important information in their search results. So when they index your website, in other words add your website to their search results, they will use your meta tags information to display your website title and description. Other code in the meta tags, are used for other functions. Creating meta tags is very easy. Basically keep in mind that it consists of three main sections which are called the meta title, meta description and meta keywords. Those are the sections you have to make unique for each page of your website. The other sections can be identical. Where exactly do you put the meta tags? Most probably you will see the title tag when you look at your website source. By default it is added by website creation tools. The meta tags are inputted at the top of your html source, in between the <head> section. Here is a real example of a complete meta tag: <title>RegCure | Registry Cleaner | Fix And Repair Registry</title> <meta name="KEYWORDS" content="registry cleaner, registry fix"/> <meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="RegCure Software automatically fixes any problems you have to improve the speed, the performance and to stop windows error messages. It checks important computer files, sytem files and much more."/> <meta name="Robots" content="all, index, follow"/> <meta name="revisit-after" content="30 days"/> <meta name="distribution" content="global"/> What you need to modify is the first three sections which are the following: <title>RegCure | Registry Cleaner | Fix And Repair Registry</title> <meta name="KEYWORDS" content="registry cleaner, registry fix"/> <meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="RegCure Software automatically fixes any problems you have to improve the speed, the performance and to stop windows error messages. It checks important computer files, sytem files and much more."/> Basically change the title and input a title for your website. Change the keywords and input your website keywords and change the description to create a description for your website. So as you have seen it is pretty easy. Do not write too long or too short. Just like the above. So if you are creating meta tags for your support page, obviously type in something like this for the title tag section: Customer Support Center. Then, enter some keywords like support center. Finally enter a description of the page, like: If you have questions, comments or require support simple send us your email through this page. Your privacy is safe with us. The other sections of the meta tag are sort of directions for search engine spiders. They tell them when to return to check back on the webpage, what links to visit on the webpage and those to ignore. And by default it is set so they visit all links on your webpage and return after 30 days. If you set it so they return earlier they might find nothing new over and over again. So 30 days is great, since probably you will add something new on your website within 30 days. You do not need to know all other technical details, adding meta tags is important however spending time to understand all technical details is time wasted. It is better to focus on other more important seo strategies after all you want to achieve high rankings. That is your main goal. --------------------- A link partner: Web Promotion Tips |
