Do you already know how to?

As you may had read in my previous article (Programming.a.baby - (Html5) Meta Tags) and the other articles before it. you should already know:

  1. What is, and how to easy make a simple web page
  2. What is an Html Head
  3. What is a MetaTag and how and where to put it

Im sure that was not so difficult to learn, since we go straight to the subject.

Wich Metatags to use

Now is time to understand which Meta Tags are most relevant for your web page.

Lets start for explain why some meta tags are not written in the same way

  1. Name Meta Meta Tags
  2. Http-equiv Meta Tags

Before this, watch this example with 2 different Meta Tags below:

<head>
<title>My Title</title> 

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-gb" /> 
<meta name="description" content="My website" />

</head>

Http-equiv

The "Http-equiv" type are in this case used instead of "Name" special Meta Tags that are used by the web server where you host your web page how to send a request and format the document, some examples are:

  • Content-Type like Char-set (utf-8)

  • Content-Language like Language (en-us)

Name

The "Name" type are normal Meta Tags but that give many kind of instructions to your Browser and Web Crawlers...etc, some Examples are:

  • Description - (some description about your website

  • Keywords - (Key words referring the real content of your page)

  • Author - (who created the page and the content)

  • Copyright - (who owns the rights of the page's content)

Watch another example with these 6 Meta Tags

<head>
<title>My Title</title> 

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-gb" /> 
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

<meta name="description" content="smiles colection" />
<meta name="keywords" content="smiles, images, gifs" />
<meta name="author" content="Paulo Portela" />
<meta name="copyright" content="hubpages" />

</head>

More Meta Tags

There are some other Meta Tags that you can use which Web Servers, Web Crawlers..etc will know it and use it.
