Meta Tags & Keywords Boost Rankings
- META TAGS give you better listings in search engines.
But some search engines ignore certain tags. Only include realistic meta tags that reflect your content.
- Meta Tags - HTML Tags that make up for a lack of text.
Your best option, however, is to have a site heavy in unique content and text. You will get better search engine rankings. Meta Tags you need:
DESCRIPTION TITLE KEYWORD
- Description Tag - HTML Tags that provide a summary which appears when your page comes up on a search.
Without this "description" the search engine will create one. It will use the TOP lines of text on your page. Meta tags are placed inside the HEAD tags.
- Title Tag - HTML Tag at the top of your page.
Use your company name and a few keywords here. Work the keywords in so it sounds natural.
- Keyword Tags - HTML Tags to provide words and phrases for the search engine to associate with your page.
Choose keywords carefully. Imagine what the searcher will enter for their search.
- Keywords should be two or more words, i.e. key phrases.
So if your site specializes in 'free business opportunities', list that as a phrase instead of listing each word. Someone looking for 'free business opportunities' is not going to just type 'business' in their search.
- Keywords must appear in the Title Tag and in the text.
Otherwise your ranking with search engines will be low, no matter how may keywords you have. Important: your keywords must appear in the first paragraph and title and headers!
- Have meta tags as one long line rather than having it wrap.
The standard length is 1024 characters. The spaces between your keywords also count as a character. Use commas to separate your keywords. Arrange keywords in order of importance.
