There is much more to META
The most popular META tags are Keywords and Description, but there
are many others for various purposes. The only other META tag not
already mentioned that will affect your search engine performance
is the META Robots Tag.
The ROBOTS tag tells a spider if it should index a page in your
site. The syntax is:
<META NAME="robots" CONTENT="all">
The content has the following options:
all
The page should be indexed. All links on this page will be followed
and those pages ahould be indexed.
none
The page should not be indexed and no links should be followed
index
The page should be indexed
noindex
The page should not be indexed, but links should be followed
follow
A ll links should be followed
nofollow
The page should be indexed, but links should not be followed
Examples:
<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">
<meta name="ROBOTS" content="INDEX, NOFOLLOW">
<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX, FOLLOW">
