Duration: 13 Minutes
Description: You’ve probably heard about “Meta Tags”. This session goes over meta tags. You’ll learn where they are, what they do, and what you should enter into them. Don’t worry its simple stuff that can help when it comes to some of the search engines.
Some tags aren’t as important as they used to be. For example there was a way to manipulate your search rankings by artifically stuffing keywords in the Description Meta tag. Some marketers placed the same keyword hundreds of times in the description tag so that search engines would rank the page highly. After a while search engines discounted or even penalized sites that abused that particular tag.
The bottom line is that you should use the meta tag fields on your web site for what they were intended for. Watch this video and learn how to use meta tags properly.
