Meta Tags and Search Engines
The use of any or all of these Meta Tags will do nothing
but good for your ranking in the major search engines
as long as they are not abused. Limit the meta tag information
to reflect the content that appears in your site and
to maximize the efficiency of the keyword and description
tags create seperate lists for each page to reflect that
specific pages content.
Remember: Nothing guarantees you a top position
in organic rankings of the major search engines!! |
