Fellow Warriors, I greatly appreciate all of the excellent advice and feedback to my many inquiries over the past month. My goal here is to be a net 'contributor' to rather than a net 'consumer' of forum content.

Nonetheless, I am encountering a warning message when attempting to add meta tag HTML to my Google Blogger theme. Can anyone help identify my error and point me to a resolution?

Message: "Editing your theme so it mixes HTTP and HTTPS may affect the security and user experience of your blog when it is viewed over HTTPS. Learn more."

My code:


</head>

<meta content='Internet Digital Entrepreneur' name='description'/>
<meta content='Internet, Digital, Entrepreneur, affiliate marketing, free trial, revenue, landing page, sales page, thank you page, millenial, work from home, baby boomer, second career, startup, entrepreneurship, Aweber, Shopify, Vimeo, financial freedom, SEOpressor, Facebook, Bing Ads, Twitter' name='keywords'/>

<meta content='blogger' name='generator'/>

<body expr:class='&quot;loading&quot; + data:blog.mobileClass'>



My blog URL is: https://internetdigitalentrepreneur.blogspot.com/ ("Picture Window" theme)

There do "not" appear to be any blog performance or functionality issues. However, I absolutely do want to ensure the code is optimized for Google and Bing.

Any guidance is most appreciated. Lawrence, Internet Digital Entrepreneur

    Do you really close the head before all those meta tags?

    They should be inside it...so if you did, well, that may be the problem.

    Anyway, without deciphering the mostly useless meta data in there, you may be mixing http content (or expected content) in there somewhere.

    I'd ditch the whole lot of it.

    When I put your url in the browser without http:// or https://, it comes up as
    http://Internet Digital Entrepreneur.com

    If I do it with https:// included, it comes up with https.

    You're mixing the two. Must choose one.

    While you're working on your site and asking for advice about it, you might want to look at your posts. I looked at one, 1 paragraph, 10 or 12 lines (hard to read, therefore), that had more than a dozen links going to whatever it is you're promoting. I'm willing to bet, you won't make money.

    1. As a previous poster mentioned your site goes to http: when using that and https: when using that.

    http:// should redirect to https: by default.

    Not familiar with blogger so not sure how it does that or if you need to adjust any settings. But it needs fixing.

    2. Also some (many) of your links are not https:

    In some browsers if you click an http: link on an https: page it will generate a security warning. It won't break page but it may put off potential buyers.

    Ensure the links you use are https: Most affiliate links are or can be https:
    but if you specify http: the issue I just mentioned occurs,

    3. your meta tags should be inside your heads tags. From the script you have shared you seem to have added them in the no-mans-land between head and body tags
