What are Meta Tags

  The <meta> tag defines metadata about an HTML document. Metadata is data (information) about data.

Metadata is used by browsers (how to display content or reload page), search engines (keywords), and other web services.

You should include the following <meta> element in all your web pages:

This gives the browser instructions on how to control the page's dimensions and scaling.

Why Do Meta Tags Matter

  Imagine walking into an abandoned store with shelves full of dust and a musty smell in the air 😕. A link to your site on Facebook or LinkedIn is often the very first interaction you have with a visitor and if it looks empty and unmaintained like a barren store, they’ll never even consider clicking the link.

Use Meta Tags For SEO

  The SEO community is definitive on this topic, the most important meta tag for ranking is your title tag. No other meta tags affect SEO rankings

Title - Very Important.
Description - Less Important.
Image - Moderately Important.
Keyword - Negative Importance.

Title Tag

  In technical terms it is a very simple html code tag <title>Title</title> which you place at the very top of your webpage. But its simplicity is only hiding the fact that the 50-60 characters that Google gives you will affect your website traffic in several ways.

Google Search - The main link that people click on.
Social Sites - The title people see on FB, Linkedin, etc.
Browser Tab - Subliminal marketing that persists in a tab.
External Links - Commonly the text other sites use to link to your site.

Steps to create meta tags

TIPS FOR AN EFFECTIVE TITLE

Consider the trifecta: Brand, marketing, and SEO. Keep the your title around 60 characters and put the keywords you’re focusing on first. Don't go overboard with keywords, at most stick to two.

Meta Image or OG:Image

With the visual nature of the web your Meta Tag Image is the most valuable graphic content you can create to encourage users to click and visit your website.

Most digital marketing and SEO websites ignore the value of graphic content since it requires design skills. But with free tools like Figma and Canva, anyone can create compelling imagery to add to their meta tags.

On sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin, your meta image is 3x larger than your text content!

Use of Meta Tags for SEO and Digital Marketing

As meta tag data can be overwhelming and your time is limited, you should focus on two things: title tag and meta image.

The primary reason for building this tool is that it’s incredible difficult to focus on the main factors that matter for meta tags. Iterating on titles and images (and descriptions) is painful!
