Hi there,

I am studying  about SEO. Also I am trying to do some practical work. Recently I started having problems when I create Blogging Meta tag, especially using Yahoo and Bing, error as shown in message below. I couldn't work properly.

Please guide me how can I solve my problem ?

The use of META tags does not assure you that your page or website will be indexed 100%. This is only used as a tool to describe the content of your page and to handle the crawling robots of different search engines, like the Google bot. Here are some examples of meta tags:

  • <meta name="revisit-after" content="1 month"> - this instructs the robot to visit the page again after 1 month
  • <meta name="ROBOTS" content="ALL">
  • <meta name="ROBOTS" content="INDEX,NOFOLLOW">
  • <meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX,FOLLOW">
  • <meta name="ROBOTS" content="NONE">

Where content can be:

  • content="ALL | NONE | NOINDEX | INDEX | NOFOLLOW | FOLLOW | NOARCHIVE"

The content field is a comma separated list:

  • INDEX - search engine robots should include this page.
  • FOLLOW - robots should follow links from this page to other pages.
  • NOINDEX - links can be explored, although the page is not indexed.
  • NOFOLLOW - the page can be indexed, but no links are explored.
  • NONE - robots can ignore the page.
  • NOARCHIVE - Google uses this to prevent archiving of the page.
  • <meta http-equip="REFRESH" content="15;url=http://www.YourSite.com/index.html"> - can be used to redirect a page
  • <meta name="KEYWORDS" content="free, download, dictionary"> - this line should describe the content of your page
  • <meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="FREE DOWNLOAD HIGH DEFINITION videos."> - this should describe your page
  • <meta name="AUTHOR" content="krie123@sandbox.com"> - you can also add the author of the page

Meta tags are placed anywhere inside the heading <HEAD></HEAD> tag.
