Along with providing high-quality website design & development solutions at very economical rates. I also provide search engine and meta tag advice and help. This section should help you get familiar with Meta Tags.
Major search engines rely heavily on good meta content for indexing. If your meta tags are weak or nonexistent, your ranking will also be weak. (2999th position on a search engine out of 3000 results will not produce traffic to your site). Of course, Meta tags help your ranking, but they make up a small part of your total search engine strategy. You should make sure you have Meta Tags, Robot Files and Search Engine Submissions as well as a good marketing plan if you intend to get high rankings in the search engines.
If you'd like me to test or advise on your meta tags and search ranking please contact me. I will give you a free evaluation.
If you would like to create or check tags yourself, the information below should help you get started.

Section 2: Contact Information About Your Site
This section is to help resource librarians in their search for patron information. It is especially important that this is a contact person that can address questions or direct the librarian to the right person. It is essential that the phone number is one that is answered by a person and not a machine.
