CoRnMaN Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 i have no clue what they r... im guessing they r the tags that r looked at to identify what ur site is, like for searches and stuff, for examlpe "games" or like "halo 2 hints". but i really have no clue how they work. thats the meta tag in my site right now, whats it doing, and how do i get it to do what i want? my site is going to be about graphics and programs like flash and photoshop ect.

Mercifull Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Thats basicly just explaining the content type of your site not the actualy content itself. Here are the common ones you need to know: Meta Copyright tag Meta Description tag Meta Keywords tag Note however that most decent search engines dont use meta data anymore. Its useful to have and i'd still reccomend having proper meta data but search engines such as google actually reads the entire content on your page to determine what its about instead of a few little keywords. A detailed meta data set isnt likely to increase your search results on google. A well designed site with good content is what will give good ranking.

Hannibal Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 You should leave that one alone, it tells a browser what character set your page is in. If you take it out, it might suddenly start thinking your page is in Chinese, which is a bit hard to read for most people ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
