CHANGE META TAGS

Meta Tags

When an individual visits Google, Bing, or Yahoo to find a website, they must first enter their search criteria. Then, the search engine sends out robots to search for sites with those meta tags.

The meta tags are keywords which search engines look for to find and index your site. It is important to capture all of the words that pertain to your website. Therefore, if someone is searching for your website, it is likely it will come up in their search.

Also, it's best to concentrate on the text of your pages. The search engines will index and give weight to the actual text on all the pages of your site; the meta tags are something of an old-school way of thinking and some engines may ignore them altogether these days. The robots.txt file is still considered useful and most engines will spider this page as a beginning point so the words and description entered in the Change Meta Tags area will in fact be considered.

It may take up to a month for the meta tags to propagate throughout the search engines.
