Hi guys,

Does any body know how to insert a meta tag description in the source code? :confused:

I've been told that the meta tag description of my site will show up in the search engine results!

All the best

    You edit the page and insert the tags just before the "</head>" tag.

    You can generate meta tags (if you don't know how to code them up) at:

      On some site code you may have to insert all the code yourself. Like
      <title></title>
      <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
      charset=windows-1252">
      <meta name="world wide web.yoururl dot com" content="
      <meta name=" content="Your Description goes here" description">
      <meta name="keywords" content="your keywords here make sure keep
      your keywords looking like this all lower case
      keyword1,keyword2,keyword3,keyword4, and so on Also make sure you
      keep all your keywords on ONE LINE with no spacing other than a coma
      separating each key word ">
      <meta name="copyright" content="Copyright © 2009 Spell Out Your
      Company Name Like This A Touch OF Class Limousine Inc">
      <meta name="distribution" content="worldwide"> DO NOT CHANGE
      <meta name="rating" content="General"> DO NOT CHANGE UNLESS
      ADULT SITE then use Adult
      <meta name="resource-type" content="document"> DO NOT CHANGE
      <meta name="revisit-after" content="10 days"> DO NOT CHANGE
      <meta name="ROBOTS" content="ALL">DO NOT CHANGE
      <script language="JavaScript"> DO NOT CHANGE

    Here's the meta data I use on my sites (copy &paste) the code, open your page in an html editor and add the code between the:

    <Head>
    <Head>

    Tags like this:

    <Head>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;>
    <title> THE TITLE OF THE PAGE (YOUR SITE NAME) HOME </title>
    <meta name="ROBOTS" content="index/follow">
    <meta name="GOOGLEBOT" content="index/follow">
    <meta name="author" content="THE NAME OF YOU OR THE COMPANY">
    <meta name="copyright" content="Copyrighted THE NAME OF THE SITE HERE">
    <meta name="revisit-after" content="15 days">
    <meta name="distribution" content="Global">
    <meta name="Description" content=" WRITE IN HERE WHAT THE SITE IS ABOUT.">
    <meta name="Keywords" content="PUT THE KEYWORDS HERE" /> BETWEEN COMAS
    <Head>

    Wayne only change the writing in red. open up the page in an HTML editor and click to read the source code, then enter the codes above in the head tags.

    Hope this helps
