Using Meta Tags to Optimize Your Website

by admin on June 24, 2011

Why bother with Meta Tags?

Have you heard that search engines no longer use meta tags and that there’s no need to optimize them? Many years ago, when webmasters were just starting to learn how to optimize their sites, meta tags were the most important element on a page. Because of excessive spam, search engines eventually phased out the meta keywords and description tags as the top ranking factors. And though meta tags aren’t as important as they used to be, they are still used by Yahoo and MSN and should still be optimized.

For me meta tags are still vitally important! one of the most important ones are used for the description of a website! do a search in google and have a look then! any site with no meta description will just show up as a link but with this meta tag it will show the link and the website description in the search results and can determine if the person searching will click on the link or not!
So in my opinion they are still as important as they have always been!
