Website Marketing Tips #5 – The Description Metatag
The Description meta tag is found in the header section of the web page and provides an opportunity to offer more of a description for the search engines.
An example syntax for this tag is: <meta NAME=“description” content=“Search Engine Marketing by Smitty’s Holdings”>
The vast majority of web pages floating out there in the cyberworld have no description tag in the header. Why is it important? It may not be as important as it once was, but I feel it should contain a clear sentence about the web page because it may be displayed in the search engine result page (SERP). Each Search Engine uses this tag differently and some engines place more weight on it.
Suggested use: Enter the keywords phrases in the sentence to enriched description. Use no more than 40 words or 3 sentences. I still find it useful.
