Need to Understand the Importance of Meta Tags


A very unpleasant aspect of Blogger is that the importance of Meta Tags is not properly comprehended. So, there is a strong need to understand what Meta Tags are and what their importance is. Until you realize the value of Meta tags, Blogger won’t be properly optimized for SEO.
Meta Tags
Meta Tags are HTML tags or codes that provide more information about your blog that can’t be seen by visitors but are available to search engines for description of your blog. The Meta description tag gives a brief first hand information about the site content. The Keyword Meta Tags depict the keywords and phrases a visitor might type to search for your blog. Thus, adding Meta Tags is very important if you want to get some good traffic from search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc, especially the Meta Description part is the most important one.

How to Add Meta Tags to Blogger for Better SEO

Simply placing a Meta Tag description in your Blogger template won’t solve the problem because Blogger will use the same Meta Tags for all pages in your blog. This solution would result in reduced traffic rather than increased traffic. However following is a correct way to add Meta Tags to the home page of your blog only which will not affect post pages in your blog. So if you want to increase traffic for your Blogger, follow the steps below.

1. Login to Blogger Dashboard.

2. Go to Template --> Edit HTML--> Proceed.

3. Back up your existing Template before making any changes!

4. Search for this Code:
 <b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
5. Add the following code just after the above code.
<meta content='BLOG DESCRIPTION GOES HERE' name='description'/>
<meta content='RELEVANT KEYWORDS GO HERE' name='keywords'/>
<meta content=‘YOUR NAME GOES HERE’ name=‘author’ />
<meta content='index,follow' name='robots'/>
<meta content='global' name='distribution'/>
<meta content='blogger' name='generator'/>
<meta content='general' name='rating'/>
<meta content='never' name='expires'/>

6. Change "BLOG DESCRIPTION GOES HERE" with the description your blog.

7. Change "RELEVANT KEYWORDS GO HERE" with the keywords of your blog.

8. Change "YOUR NAME GOES HERE" with the name of author (your name).

9. Now save your template and that's it! You have successfully added the metatags to your blogger (blogpsot) blog.
