Thanks in advance, Dinos I'm trying to put a meta tag description on my homepage, but it's not working because when I search for it on google, a different description shows up. This is my head: <head> <meta name="description" content="The reviewing site for New York City landlords. Find out if your landlord is a slumlord before you rent from them. ***** and moan about your existing landlord."> <meta name="Keywords" content="landlord, tenant, landlord tenant, small claims court, new york city, rent, deposit, security deposit, eviction, evict, slumlord, landlord law, tenant law, new york city tenant, rent new york city, landlord new york city, department of housing, sanitation, review, slumlord new york city" /> <title>The Landlord Intelligence Agency</title> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"> <link rel="icon" type="image/gif" href="animated_favicon1.gif"> <style type="text/css"> a { text-decoration:none } </style> </head> Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here? Ok... I may have posted this in the wrong section but who cares anyway... I wonder if there is a way to add this <META HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no"> "meta-thing" to all my HTML pages in my site. Can you add it to an external file or something??.

I came throught tag <META NAME="Author" CONTENT="text"> I don't see any change in my web page including this tag. Can u please tell me what's the use of it. How can I see that information in my web page Iv just created a website using CoffeeCup HTML Editer, but this is the first website which i have created using a HTML Editer instead of a sitebuilder provided by the hosting. In the sitebuilder i used for my old site, it provided what was called"SEO Wizard" which wrote the meta tags in the head for me. Now im using this HTML Editer, i have to write it myself.. On the template i used to start off, it provided the following as a start for me to enter the rest. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="Description" content="Your Title"> <meta name="author" content="CoffeeCup Software, Inc."> <meta name="Copyright" content="Copyright (c) 2010 CoffeeCup, all rights reserved."> <title>Your Title</title> <style... I can see myself that i need to add some sort of meta tag for my "Keywords". Im also not sure if there is any other codes i need to add, or removed if needed. Could someone help me please? Thanks! Note: Im not asking someone to add my keywords for me, etc.. lol. Im just looking for help on how to write it & then i can fill in the "Specific Stuff" for my site. okey so one of my friends want me to make hes homepage up to date, and when i was looking trough the code i saw this meta tag, I dont realy know what it does so can any one help me??

HTML Code: <head> <title>Dark-Host.net</title> <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <meta name="keywords" content="dark-host web hosting cheap affodable efficent webhosting free australian dark host " /> <meta name="description" content="Dark-Host.net, Cheap and Affodable Web Hosting! /> </head> The code in a script I'm using shows this code on the main page: Code: <meta name="Description" content="[var.description;htmlconv=no;]"> <meta name="Keywords" content="[var.tags;htmlconv=no;]"> Shouldn't their be a line "meta tags=" for the keywords? Or will replacing the word "Keywords", in the code above, with some keywords, do the trick? Or do I need to add keywords elsewhere? Thanks Hi guys, just a quick question regarding meta-data and metatags. After a recent overhaul of our google adwords campaign its come to light new search options inside of adwords regarding things like; search - broad search [search] - exact match "search" - phrase match -search - exluding search etc... Are meta-tags sensitive to this, and if so would this have an effect on search engine visability levels... now I already know some search engines do not use Meta-data... but for the others that do, it's most likely worth doing... Any help is much apprciated. Ben Hello, I uploaded my first web site and I wrote some key words in the meta tags. <meta name="keywords" content="..."> <meta name="description" content="..."> <meta name="language" content="..."> <meta name="country" content="...> <meta name="robots" content="all"> The problem is that when I am writing on the google web page the keywords, it cannot find the web site. Can anyone help with the above problem?? My page is initially displayed with some default values in the text elements. I'm using a refresh. If a user changes a value of an element, the refresh overwrites with the initial values. 1. Is there a way to keep what the user has typed in this situation ? 2. Is there a way to distinguish a metatag refresh or submit has taken place ? basicaly what the title says i have no idea what they do. Please explain in nooob terms Hi, I noticed that if you insert meta tags into html somewhere in the body tags, the browser still recognizes them. I know its bad practice, but do search engines frown on putting meta tags in the body INSTEAD of the head? Cheers, Doug Should meta name description and keywords be in all of my sites web pages or just the home page? Thanks. Hey! I have run my site through the W3C validator and have a bunch of errors coming up for problems supposedly within my meta keyword and meta description tags. I've been trying to figure out why it's not liking what i have but can't figure it out. If anyone could help me out i would really appreciate it! My webpage is paleocookbook.com and the problems i'm having appear when doing a quick validator check at http://validator.w3.org Any help is greatly appreciated. Can Someone please explain the relevance of using x-meta-robots? <meta name="robots" content="index,follow" /> Cheers! MAs I hate SEO Hi All, I know Meta tags aren't a huge thing these days but I still like to use them, just wondering what everyones thoughts were on which ones to use? I think they are way too many, obviously 'description' and 'keywords' would be important... Any others? And anyone know of any good generators? Thanks! So I'm using CSS and the same header is used on every page. It includes all meta info, nav bar, company logo, etc. I read at the SEO opt sites that Meta data should be specific for each page to improve SEO (search engine optimization - google ratings). Those two seem to be at odds with each other: CSS good, but use different META info for every page. for example this is my code for an average page: Code: <?php require 'head01.html'; // call HTML headers, same for all require 'center11.html'; // call center code - another page require 'footer01.html'; // call footer code - same for all ?> CenterXX differs for every page but not Header01.html which has my META data. help. kc In terms of search engine ranking, is it better for a websites meta tags (title, keywords, and description) to be different on every page of the site?... or is it best to make one really great tag and copy/paste it into every page? I would think the first would be better but then there won't be the constant repetition of good keywords because every pages tags will be different. |
