The HTML code you see above is the metatag section of the
"Books”
web page at my site. Web

In this free report, you’re going
to learn how to write effective metatags as shown above for
your website using a “metatag” template.
You’ll also learn why it’s important to write
metatags for your website.
Why Are Metatags Necessary
for Your Website’s Success?
There is one sole purpose for adding
metatags to your web pages - to help your website get listed
in search engines. If you're currently enrolled in the
“My
First Website” promotion
course for beginners, you’ll learn more about search
engines and how they work. Also, you’ll add metatags to
each web page of your site as you submit them to the search
engines.
But for now, concentrate on placing
metatags in your homepage only. You can do the remainder of
your pages later as you list them with the search engines.
Use this report to insert metatags
into your homepage HTML code.
The search engines will examine your
webpage and your metatags for important keywords that tell
about your site. Also, most search engines will utilize your
metatag section “Title” and
“Description” for your listing information. This
listing will show when your web page appears as a search
result for the search engines.
Below is an example of a listing of
mine that appears at the search engine “Alta
Vista” for my website:
