HTML Meta Tags

HTML Meta Tags, are one of the most important considerations when designing web pages. This is because they directly influence the search result and click thru rate in search engines. There are a lot of different components in meta tags, however two are of great relevance, they are: meta keyword and meta description. The meta description will act as a summary when search engines return the result to the searchers of your site. Without meta description, the engine will either take the first 200 characters of your page, or try to summarize your page, they don't usually do a good job in summarizing your page, because no computer is as smart as human. You will want visitors to see what you want them to see, not just some random summarization.

Because the title of the web page is closely linked with meta tags, we will discuss this together. What's inside the title tag is what everybody else is going to see as your page title. How attractive and to the point is it is also of vital importance. If you are not too good with HTML, you can use a meta tag generator to edit the meta tag, without needing to modify the source code.

Now we get to the part where most people are not familiar; it is how to use meta tag to your best advantage. Say your site concentrated on a keyword, such as meta tag generator, what you do is put that in you title, as straight forward as possible. Then in the meta description, mention meta tag generator once or twice. In the meta keyword also put meta tag generator in, however, do not repeat anything in meta keyword, otherwise search engine might think you are spamming.

Ok, now in the content of the web page, mention meta tag builder a few times. Don't mention it too much like 30 or 40 times in one page, then you run the risk of the search engine suspecting that you are spamming. The best way is to have a content rich page, in which the keywords just happen to appear a number of times.

Title and meta description is what going to appear in the search result, so make sure you compose them well. It is no use if you get the number 1 position, however because of the poor description, nobody wants to click on the link. Say if they search up for meta tag builder, and you page is in the first position, and your description says, "metal stud builder", who do you think will click thru? Make this attractive and to the point, since search engine usually only display up to 200 characters in the meta description.
