META tags are HTML Tags that describe the contents of a web page. The primary purpose of Meta tags is to help catalog and categorize the contents of a web page. If your pages do not contain them then they may not get categorized the way you'd like by the search engines. |

We recommend that you at least include the 'Description', 'Keyword' and 'Robots' tags. Also the 'Title' of your page plays an important role in helping search engines (and visitors) to determine the content of your site.Only 25% of sites use them, but most search engines evaluate META tags when they rank your site. |

Once you have selected the keywords that really fit your site
you can begin to add them to your page as you build it. Along
with using those key words as the first
words within their HTML meta tags, image tags, heading
tags, title tag, text link tags, alt tags and even the file name
of the page itself you need to use them in your HTML meta tags: |
