A Html5 Tag




        By: Lauren Hopkins
        Class: Web Design Winter 2012
        Professor: Ian Pollock
The Meta Tag, provides
information known as data in an
html document.

Also, it allows you to develop the
description of your page in the
crawlers that support the tag.
Usually, Meta tags provide
browsers with information that
can’t be seen on the web surfer .
Here is what the meta tag
would look like in a HTML
document .
<head>
<meta name="description" content="Free
Web tutorials" />
<meta name="keywords"
content="HTML,CSS,XML,JavaScript" />
<meta name="author" content="Hege
Refsnes" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
</head>
This Tag describes the contents and
characteristics of the Web page.

Meta tags have a nifty way of being able to store
information that are descriptive data in tag
attributes. Meta tags are placed between the
head tags of an HTML document, so they're easy
to find and search engine robots but aren't
displayed in the Web browser window.
Meta-Tags can serve a variety of
purposes:

Identity's the creator of the page.
Describes what HTML.
Speculates the following page.
Draws attention to keywords.
Highlight ‘s the page description, etc.
“In The Mid Nineties, Meta tags were
 developed to assist with the rapid growth
 of web pages. In the late 90’s there was a
 major occurrence. Many Webmasters,
 generally those who ran adult-orientated
 websites, began to abuse the use of
 Keyword Meta tags.”
