Before looking into how to add meta tags there are some misconception presents regarding meta tags which need clarification. One of them is,
- "Does Google ever use the "keywords" meta tag in its search engine ranking"?
The answer is a big NO. Google never uses keywords meta tag for its search engine ranking. There are millions of websites containing meta tags with LEYWORDS. Google simply visit the site and ignore the meta tags. So simply "keywords" meta tags has no effect in google search engine ranking.
Another misconception present is,
- "Does Google completely ignores all metatags"?
The answer is NO. Though Google completely ignores "keywords" meta tag but it does not completely ignore the description meta tag. Google sometimes use the "description" meta tag as the text for the search results snippets which means it displays description part text while displaying the search results. It is like after we search for a word the page description text is displayed in the search results snippets. So it may attract user to click your link based on your attractive description meta tag.
Note that google do it sometimes but always remember that description meta tag has no effect in google search engine ranking.
Despite there is no search engine ranking effect by Google, still many ones like to add keywords and description meta tags for their site as well as for the blogger blog.
For the webpage the system is easy.
Within the <head> section you need to add META information like below.
<head>
<META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="Add metatgs blogger blog tips" >
<META NAME="Description" CONTENT="Blogger tips about adding metatag Information to a blog post.>
</head>
