How To Add Metatags

Adding Metatags

You will need to add metatags to your page usning either an HTML editor like Wide Designer or even a plain text editor like Notepad. Some HTM editors that "Do it ALL!" for you, forgot about allowing you to enter metatags, so be sure the HTML editor you choose allows viewing of HTML source.

Placement of META tags

META tags should always be placed in the head of the HTML document between the actual <HEAD> tags, before the <BODY> tag. This is very important with framed pages, as a lot of developers tend to forget to include them on individual framed pages. Remember, if you only use <META> tags on the frameset pages, you'll be missing a large number of potential hits.

If you need to know more about meta tags, read Understanding Metatags or reveiw the other metatag documents in How To.

When we host a website for you, some of our hosting plans include us creating the meta tags for you and doing the submissions. If you have selected one of these plans, you need not concern yourself with metatags.
