In fact there are certain things they can see likerepparttar 127943 Meta tagswhich we normal users are unable to see.

Meta tags

Generally there are two kinds of Meta tags I use.

•< meta name="keywords" content=" " > •< meta NAME="Description" content="" >

Inrepparttar 127944 first one I enter ‘keywords', which are describing words for my site. They are not exactly adjective's like in

•A orange car

In this instance orange isrepparttar 127945 adjective but not exactly a suitable keyword forrepparttar 127946 page. While car seems more appropriate as it gives a description torepparttar 127947 contents ofrepparttar 127948 page, i.e. a page which has information about an orange car

Now althoughrepparttar 127949 keyword ‘car' is used onrepparttar 127950 page, you must have gone into details aboutrepparttar 127951 bonnet, spoiler, leather seats, power steering, fuel efficiency, alloy wheels, horse power and other things ofrepparttar 127952 car, yes?

The other information you had provided can also be used as keywords but its better if you only use a keyword that has been mentioned on your site.

Using meta tags creatively and efficiently can help a lot in your site occupying a ‘good' spot in SERP's (Search Engine Results Pages).

Unlike other people I don't believe in occupying a #1 spot on Google or any other search engine as I know thatrepparttar 127953 change of its algorithm can get be down any time. Rather I would like to considered relevant for a variety of other keywords other than just my ‘core' keyword.

The Title Tag
