Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Meta Tags

Hi friends!! Today I want to tell you about my experience with meta tags. Its so effective for your site SEO. So friends let’s start and get traffic ;)

META tags are HTML code that you can visit your website to major search engines can find you, now depending on the description and the keywords you use for your meta tags the search engines put you in the top or in a position too low. Do I mean by this? For example if you have an account with Homestead is one of the companies they recommend to work will provide an area where you can enter either the title, and meta tags which includes a description and keywords for make it easier to find you on search engines. The more specific and shorter for the meta description tag will be better and I mean that at that place it as a brief description meta tag should be commensurate with what you have entered this web page. Meta tags like-

<TITLE>YOUR SITE TITLE HERE 60 CHARACTERS</TITLE>
<LINK REV='made' href='YOUR MAIL ADDRESS HERE'></LINK>
<meta NAME='keywords' content='YOUR SITE KEYWORD HERE 250 CHARACTERS'/>
<meta NAME='description' content='YOUR SITE DESCRIPTION HERE 3 OR 4 SENTENCE'/>
<meta NAME='author' content='YOUR NAME HERE'/>
<meta content='imageindex' name='robots'/>
<meta content='index, follow' name='robots'/>
<meta content='global' name='distribution'/>
<meta content='en' name='language'/>
<meta content='never' name='Expires'/>
<meta content='4 Days' name='Revisit-after'/>

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="20;URL=./indice.htm" >

Now I am discuss about this meta tags.

As you know, in the HTML pages there is a section within the "head" as defined by <head> </ head>, where you can insert meta tags of type ... These tags are indicators that, in some cases, tell the page how to behave and others are purely informational.

When you create an HTML page generally include:
<title> </ title> this is not really a meta tag, but is within the header and the title of the page.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">

this is another meta tags indicating the type of encoding used on the page.

Note:
These meta-tags are finished with the> sign, but if you want to have "consistency" (mostly in the form "well formed" XML), should end with />, so we'll be doing things better ... although this difference to the browsers is not important.

Apart from the title, in these cases that I show, we see the two most common: name and http-equiv, in both cases the format is the same type of meta-tag and then the contents, which must be quoted after word content.

In the case of name, we can create our own, (although they have no meaning for the browser, we can be helpful at least for information. Since you can create your meta-tags to indicate the author of the page the review dates, etc...

But the important thing is to know which of these meta-tags will have some effect on the browser and even the robots used by search engines.

Let the relationship.
To "refresh" a page or redirect to another after a given time:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="20;URL=./indice.htm">

The type is http-equiv = "refresh" on content we say the number of seconds (if indicated zero is immediate) and then indicate the page that should be directed to this end we use URL = name of the page.

In this example, you load the page index.htm which is in the current directory after 20 seconds.

The key words "robots" used:

<meta name="keywords" content="Google's words separated by comas">

This tag will use the robots sent by search engines and used to indicate the keywords related to the page in question.

The description of the page:

<meta name="Description" content=" Description of page">

This tag is used by search engines to give a description of the contents of the page.
If the "Robots" should take account of this page or not:

<meta name="robots" content=" your robot instructions ">

The value of content can be:
all for the robot to take account of this page and can follow the links contained in it (this is the default)
noindex not to take it into account.
none that is the same as noindex, nofollow
index for the note
follow so that you can follow links on the page there
follow the opposite of nofollow.
If you want to know more about this topic of robots, look what story about the robots.txt file.

To not save the page in the cache:

<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" >

This tells the browser not to save the page in the cache.
This meta-tag is not valid for Internet Explorer and according to the Knowledge Base, it is preferable to use the method described above, ie using "expires" content and -1:

<meta http-equiv="expires" content="-1" >

Let's see if it's true ... as this is what I need to avoid the glitches that sometimes you tell me that is not the right page ...

Prevent a page is displayed within a frame:

<meta http-equiv="Window-target" content="_top" >

Content can be used in:
top to indicate it is displayed on the entire page, not within a frame,
blank to display in a new window

There are more, but I think these show you are the most important for your SEO.
