Hi everybody, this is not a css-question, but therefore I posted it in other discussions. I was thinking about meta-tags and was wondering which tags you all use. I got a whole list, but maybe it's too much? Or are there some you definetly must use? These are mine:
I actually almost never use any meta tags other than content type to set the character set. Of the ones that you've listed, the ones I see as the most useless are the copyright and the robots ones. If you have specific directions you want search bots to follow, I think you'll have much more luck with a robots.txt file.
Amongst others (but not many) I do use the description meta tag - many search engines still use it to provide the description of the search result. Very handy. Although far less used than a few years ago, it doesn't hurt to use the keywords meta.
What do you think of it? My own opinion now is that 'robots' maybe is unnecessary, because "index, follow" isn't that what the robots are used to do?
i dont use the others really at all
Is it a good thing to define the language?
