Boise SEO – What is Meta Content?

Meta content and tags are the groups of content found in each page of a website’s code. Meta content should not be overlooked, however, it’s also good to note that you shouldn’t overdo it as well.

There are 3 sections of meta tags that are included:

Meta Keywords:

Up until a few years ago, meta keywords were actually important to include in a page’s meta tags. However, the meta keyword tag is now gone and irrelevant. With that being said, it’s still important to know what the tag is/was so you can reference its significance in the past.


Meta Title:

The meta title is an important tag that should include the title of the page, what it’s about, while tastefully incorporating some targeted keywords.


Meta Description:

This tag should include a sentence explaining what the user will find on the page. Think of it as a quick summary to what the page is about, including some keywords strategically placed for an added SEO benefit.

Incorporating meta content correctly into your pages is a very simple and basic form of on-page SEO and no web design professional should be charging you extra for this.
