OK so what are meta tags and what do they do. Meta tags are what the search engines use to "identify" your website. As for what they do, that's what I'm going to be covering below.Now there are thousands of meta tags that can be used but most of them are pure useless...Here are the few that I would recommend using in every document!
Content Type Declaration:
Keywords
Description
Distribution

Content Type Declaration:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
Keywords
- Code:
<meta name="keywords" content="keyword, keyword two, keyword three" />
Description
- Code:
<meta name="description" content="This is the description of the page." />
Distribution
- Code:
<meta name="distribution" content="Global" />
- GLOBAL – Suitable for full distribution (no restrictions).
- LOCAL – The document should not be made available to the full web.
- IU – Internal Use (For Intranets etc, not for distribution)
