SEO Tools - Meta Tag Generator

SEO Tools - Meta Tag Generator

If you're new to web development and search engine optimization, you may find this tool useful for ensuring your meta tags are correctly formed. The tool has two fields -- Keywords and Description:

Keywords: Enter a short list of keywords and terms related to your site. The terms can be separated by a comma, but a delimiter is not required.

Description: Enter a brief description of your site and what it offers. This is sometimes used by search engines as a website’s “snippet” for search results.

About Meta Tags: At one point meta tags were considered a relatively important factor by search engines. AltaVista and other older search engines used them to help determine a site’s theme as well as relevance to a given term. This is no longer the case; search engines now rely on much more advanced techniques to do this. That said, meta tags still have some life left in them; they are sometimes used as the snippet of a site's content in search engine result pages by Google, and possibly other search engines. It's also possible they still have a little influence with some search engines in determining a site’s content.
