Meta Tags
Meta Tags March 23rd, 2007What meta tags do you need, and what is a bunch of extra junk in your code? We discuss quite a few of them and give some tips on writing effective meta tags.
Example from ToolBarn.com:
meta name=”keywords” content=”power tools, battery chargers, fasteners, tool parts, air tools, safety glasses, cordless power tools“
meta name=”description” content=”Power Tools and Fasteners - ToolBarn.com offers a large selection of online power tools and fasteners for sale to contractors and home owners, including power tools and air tools.“


Thanks for the continued helpful information. For us real beginners, a written example of the actual coding would help cement what you are talking about. As someone who doesn’t do HTML every day, without an example in front of me it is difficult to picture it. I’m working on my HTML skills, so examples would fit right in with the learning process. Feel free to tell me I don’t know enough yet to listen to these podcasts!
That’s a good suggestion. I’ll see what I can do about adding that to the posts… once I get the podcasts fixed. Darn flash player…
