Meta Tag Library

description*  The meta description tag is used by search engine spiders, and provides them with a description of your web pages. It is most often used for SEO (search engine optimization) to provide a short (1 – 3 sentences, most search engines cut off descriptions at 160 characters, I recommend staying below that number) description of the contents of the page.  I recommend using a different description for every web page on your site, helping both search engines and the people visiting the site.  I highly recommend this tag, if you don’t include it, search engines just use the first two sentences from each page, which can sometimes prove less useful to visitors to your site and SEO.

keywords* The meta keywords tag is used by some search engines to indicate what search terms the page should show up under.  While I do recommend using this meta tag since it does have some benefits, it’s benefits are not going to guarantee you any specific search page ranking so the time spent on it should be short.  Keywords should be kept to 10 - 15 single words or 1 - 2 word phrases.
