I did a rank check for a certain keyword I was going for, and the results were great because im #2.

Anyway, it said I have no "Robots meta tag" and "Author meta tag" and it was recommended I add them.

Does anyone know how to add those Meta tags?

Thanks in advance.

    If you use a robots meta tag, it can be used to block a specific page from the search engine bots.

    The format for the robots meta tag (between the <head></head> tags) is
    META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">. In this case, you are asking the search bots not to index the page and not to follow the links only on the page on which this meta tag is placed.

    Be default, the value for robots meta tag is
    META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="INDEX, FOLLOW">

    So if you do not have the robots tag on your page, by default, the search engine bots will index the page and follow all the links on that page. Else, use this meta tag with care.

    The Author tag shows the name of the person who authored the page content on a site.
    The format is
    <META name="Author" content="Author Information">

    Do not get hung up on these meta tags. A lot of times, tags like author tag can even be ignored by the search engines.
