What
are the metatags?
Metatags are special tags added to the top of a web page
(in the “head” section) in order to describe overall information
about the page. There are many of them, with many different
purposes — some describe how the page should be cached,
when it expires, what language the page is in, who the
author is, etc.
When discussing search engine optimization, the two meta
tags that are usually spoken of are the “keywords” metatag,
and the “description” metatag.
