Metadata: A Meta Tags list

January 22, 2012 Posted by Alan Development

Metadata elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata types.

Meta elements

— are tags used in HTML or XHTML documents to provide structured metadata about a Web page. They are part of a web page’s head section.

Multiple Meta elements with different attributes can be used on the same page. Meta elements can be used to specify page description, keywords and any other metadata not provided through the other head elements and attributes.

Meta tag is information about data.

The tag provides metadata about the HTML document. Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but will be machine parsable.

Meta elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata.

The metadata can be used by browsers (how to display content or reload page), search engines (keywords), or other web services.

Find below, our list of the most commonly used Meta Tags.
