@donatelloNov 29.2011 — Meta Tags have a checkered history.

Originally, the IT guys at W3C set them up for the gentlemanly world of programmers to tell the world meta-information about a site.

Then marketers realized that they could spam meta tags to get better page rank, and they quickly made meta keyword tags obsolete. Most search engines ignore them, or use them only to identify really dumb keyword spammers and stuffers (never use more than 12 meta keywords!)

The main innovation of Google was that it was one of the first search engines to ignore meta keyword tags and it actually parsed the page for on-page content (as well as indexing inbound links and the frequency of updates to the page.)

[B]What you need to know:[/B]

The most important meta tags are:

Title

Meta Description

Now, however, Facebook has re-invented the meta tag with "Open Graph" meta tags, and it is more complicated.

The best thing to do is use a Meta Tag Generator, like the one I built. You can see the link in my signature below. My site has everything you need to know.

Good luck!

Last time I checked, Google allowed 70 Characters on the Title, and 156 characters on the Descriptions otherwise your serps will get chopped.

@iPhoneappsFeb 24.2012 — Title and description Meta Tags are more important so keep this thing in mind to put the most relevant keywords in them.

@seo2makerFeb 27.2012 — Meta is most important part in On page Optimization.. here three parts:

  • 1. <Title> </title>

  • 2. <meta name="keywords" content=

  • 3. <meta name="description" content=

    However, there some other tags too important in on page optimization, these are h1 and robots tag

    @mayson_ratMar 13.2012 — Meta tags its main role is to give information about someone else website.

    Parts are <meta name="description" content=, <title> <meta name="keyword".. It produces short description to your page. Your description should always include KW so that it can add crawl towards your website

    @printbucketMay 23.2012 — Meta tags are HTML codes that are inserted into the header on a web page, after the title tag. In the context of search engine optimization, when people refer to meta tags, they are usually referring to the meta description tag and the meta keywords tag.

    @perfectionsiMay 23.2012 — First I clear term metadata is data (information) about data. The <meta> tag provides metadata about the HTML document. Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but will be search engine software or boot. In meta elements it include page description, keywords, title, other metadata. The <meta> tag always inside the <head> section.

    Did you mean if you will use more characters mentioned by you than your SERP will drop. If so i would be highly disagree with you. In terms of title google will skip rest of the characters and for description you can use as much as you want(reasonable) google will find best match and will show that in your description either from description or from content

    @perfectionsuMay 24.2012 — The Meta tag in html is not a required tag when you're creating your web pages.The meta description tag and the meta keywords tag are not seen by users. Instead, these tags main purpose is providing meta document data to user agents, such as search engines.

    @NodderMay 28.2012 — Meta tags are the HTML tags that may contain information about what the page is about (keywords and description), language, author, when it was write and much more. These days only Meta description and robots tags are important as rest of these are ignored by many search engines. Title is the most important one but is not a meta tag.

    @josefaryanMay 29.2012 — I do mainly use meta tags to specify the keywords of the web page, however keywords meta tag is not very important in google point of view because the keywords can be grabbed from the web page's text content itself. So, i will be using meta tags for robots.txt file and description things.

    @dmaarc123May 29.2012 — Meta Tag have three main parts

    1)Title

    2) Keywords

    and

    3)Description

    all Three of them should be very relevant to your website, and it requires deep Study and the main thing is that in SEO this part is usually use. SEO depends on this main things. Title, keywords and description is most important part of SEO.

    And this all part show on the search result.

    When you enter any keyword regarding your query. And when a result display.

    Every link have this all three things.

    @adumpaulJun 08.2012 — The <meta> tag provides metadata about the HTML document. Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but will be machine parsable.Meta elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata.

    Meta tags were the original way to tell search engines what your page was about. You’d add a description and a number of keywords into your meta tags, and a search engine would come along to “index” your page, read these words, and file your site under them.

    The <meta> tag always goes inside the <head> element.

    @vincewicksJun 19.2012 — In building a website meta tags is applicable. Title, meta description and meta keywords are the three main parts of meta tags. These three are most relevant in creating a back link just like social bookmarking. Each of the three have different uses and function.
