Ok now... Here's what you're looking at...

This is<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar "> title you will see at<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128318"> top of your web browser! The title may be<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128319"> most important of all 3 meta tags. If you look at <IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128320"> top of your browser, our title meta tag will read "How To Create Meta Tags To Optimize Your Web Site".< itle><p><META name="description" content="This is were you can describe what each individual page within your site is about. Not ALL Search Engines look at this meta tag but many still do. Keep your description to about 100-200 words. Try not to copy what your wrote within your title and make your description appealing to read."><p>TIP: You must include<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128321"> "code" indicated in bold in order for your meta tags to work. So many web sites have meta tags that are never read by search engines because there is a flaw within<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128322"> meta tags. Don't forget to include<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128323"> "closing tags" ( "> ).<p><META name="keywords" content="The key words meta tag gives<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128324"> search engine<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128325"> key words you want your site to be listed in when someone searches those key words. In other words, let's say you want to have your site listed when someone searches "Marketing". You would add "Marketing" within your keywords meta tags. Unfortunately due to over spamming by many web sites before you, search engines rarely pay attention to<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128326"> "key word meta tags" but I feel it won't hurt to use all<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128327"> tool available."><p>Please Note: Each indivdual search engine looks at your key words differently. No one knows what<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128328"> search engines are looking for except for<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128329"> people that program them. Any business claiming that they know what search engines are looking for are trying to sell you false hopes.<p>How to view a web page's meta tags! Right click on your mouse and select<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128330"> option "View Source". This will open another word document to show you<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128331"> web site's "Code". Meta Tags are typically near<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128332"> top of<IMG height=12 src="/the2.jpg" alt="repparttar 128333"> document.<p>Try it out now and see if you can view this page's meta tags!!!<p>------------------------------------------------------------------- <br><img src="images/ata.gif"><br> <p>About The Author:<p>Martin R.
