Get Better Search Using META Tags


If you search any thing using search engines like google, yahoo or msn, they look at the ‘META‘data of the webpage to find contents you are looking for. Meta data’s are the part of your website’s HTML code and this way search engines know that what your site is all about.

If you want to target a keyword for your blog, you have to write lots of contents related to that keyword. Like if you want to get better placements in the search engines for the keyword, ‘Computers‘ -then you have to write lots of articles using pc, computer, tech, laptop, desktop keywords.

Most of the time your hardwork may not work and another blog with less quality articles can get the better places. If you use META tags in your blog, there is a big chance to get better rankings in search engines.
Add The Code In Your Blog
Log in to your blog and open the blog’s HTML file. Blogger users go to Dashboard > Layout > Edit HTML.


You have to add the code before the HEAD tag. It is better to add it after HEAD so that search engines will find it in the beginning.

Add these codes after the tag

<meta name="title" content="Blog Title"/>
<meta name="description"content="The Description"/>
<meta name="keywords" content="The Keywords"/>

Description: Replace the red part of the code using a simple description of your blog. Make it short within 25-30 word 
(maximum 160 letters)
Keywords: Replace the red part of the code using relevant keywords of your blog. If you are blogging about jobs then 
you could add, jobs,job, money, salary, my job, company, part time etc.
  • Separate all of the keywords using coma’s (,)
  • Keep 5-6 main keywords and upto 10 keywords max 
  • Don’t put irrelevant keywords!   
Click Save Template‘and within few days, you will see the difference in google search.

Note: Don’t expect overnight results/ traffic, because search traffic takes time to apply changes. Meta tags are 
just another optimization, not a super technique.
