SEO tips, The good old way is of no use. The meta html tag. A concept from the past.

Introduction:
This page will give an introduction to the consept of the meta html-tag, the syntax, and a comment on why you should not use it. The idea behind the HTML-tag META is that the editor of a html document should be able to specify additional information that is relevant for the document. This information is meant for either the browser or search engine crawlers.
How it works:
The meta-tag is placed in between the <head></head> tags. Here are some examples of uses:
<meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="Everything you need to know about making cool webpages.">
This tag would give a textual description what the webpage is about.
<meta name="KEYWORDS" content="chocolate, history of chocolate, brands, best prices">
This tag would give a hint about what keywords are relevant for the document.
<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX">
This tag would give a message to a search engine crawler that you do not want the particular document included in a search engine.
