I am pretty sure that you all know about Meta Tags, but something you may have not known is that Meta Tags are only one of the most important requirements to reach top pages in search engines like Google.
Meta Tags name and describe the website or page and also tells its users who is the author of the website. Meta Tags also include special features which help Google when finding the website using Robots.
Insert these meta tags between the '< head >' and '< / head >' tags on your web page: Note: also make sure you don't have the same meta tag twice
Code
<meta name="author" content="Name of the owner here"> <meta name="keywords" content="Keywords separated by commas here"> <meta name="description" content="A short description of the website, keep under 150 characters"> <meta name="robots" content="all,index" />
Once you have done that. Edit them, for example on the 'Key Words' tag, replace 'Keywords separated by commas here' with what you want to be searched in the search engine to find your website.
For example, if your website is called GreenWeb. Here is a list of keywords you should use:
Quote
greenweb, green web, green-web, green, web
The rest of the Meta tags are pretty obvious, but ask if you do not understand.
Also just so you know, the following meta tag is set to 'all,index' means that the search engine (for example, Google) will index every page on your website, which will make it more popular in engine.
