How to Maximize Your Metatags For The Best Exposure On The Web
posted December 13, 2008 - 1:15pmTrying to increase the volume of viewers on your online content? The way to do this is through maximizing your meta tags. Meta tags are the part of the code in the website that search engines use to pull up your site/article/content/xomba on the screen for the end user/customer/audience. There are experts out there that work on meta tag development specifically for websites so they can come up number one on google search. You could read tons of tutorials or use software applications to generate your meta tags or you can use this quick and simple method for people who don't know anything about html and other webcoding languages. Meta tags are copyrightable material so read number 5 in this list carefully before you publish anything.
1. Go to the search engine of choice (I like google) and enter the topic of your website/xomba/article/online content/pics whatever. Press Search/Enter.
2. Now Look at the webpages that pull up on the very first page and find the one that is most related to your topic or intended for your customer/audience and open it.
3. In your browser (I am using firefox, explorer, safari, and netscape) you go to View in the bar and go down to View Source Code. This shows you the coding that the page was written in.
4. Now Scroll down to where it says
5. DO NOT Copy the meta tags or the structure in which they are in there. This is illegal and is plagiarism. However, you can go through the top pages to get an idea of what is out there. If you do copy them, there are ways they can find out and get you in trouble. So, if you really wanted to protect your self you can include a citation for your meta tags at the end of your article. However, if you didn't get a direct quote from them, or aren't paraphrasing them, you don't need to do it.

Thanks for pointing that out
Missing info?
Does Abmox Want Us to Use "Just 5" or "as Many as Possible"?
