IMPORTANT SEO TIPS META TAGS
If you are an experienced web designer or know the basics of web programming, you've probably heard the term "META" at some point in time. The <meta> tag defined metadata about your html document. This data will not appear on your document or in browsers, but it's machine parsable. There's a variety of different meta tags that can be used in your script. Most common metadata elements include keywords, page description, author of page, and modified date. Remember, all meta tags must be included within the <head> tag.
This is a correct example of how to place meta tags in your script or code.
<head>
<meta name="description" content="Search Engine Optimization">
<meta name="keywords" content="SEO tips, SEO techniques, freelance SEO">
<meta name="author" content="Hale Associations">
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow">
<meta name="google-site-verification">
<meta charset="UTF-8">
</head>
In HTML, the meta tag doesn't have to be closed. However, in XHTML, you will need to close the tag.
Some SEOs believe that there's no added value in metadata while others believe in it. We always advise our clients to use meta tags within their script or programming. The code above gives Google permission to index and read our HTML code. If you didn't want Google bots to read your website or index it, you'd add "no" to index and follow as you can see below.
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">
