Add Meta Tags to Blogger/Blogspot blogs.

For one of my blog I make an experiment. I want to see difference in SEO and SERP with and without meta tags. There are many discussion all over the web but mostly people say "adding meta tags can even hurt your web site". But on the other hand mostly web sites at first page of Google seaches come with meta tags. At least I made right now quick test.

If you want to generate meta tags automatically you can use Meta Tags generator. It has one bug. After it generates meta tags for your keywords, title, description you have to add slash ( / ) at the end of each meta code. See example below.


<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>testing meta tags</TITLE>
<META NAME="description" CONTENT="this is for the test of meta tags">
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="ALL">
</HEAD>


And after your manual correction should look like this


<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>testing meta tags</TITLE>
<META NAME="description" CONTENT="this is for the test of meta tags"/>
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="ALL"/>
</HEAD>

Now you should not have any problem to copy and paste your HTML code with meta tags into your blogspot / blogger blog in LAYOUT - EDIT HTML. Please remember that meta tags must be in HEAD section. It means between <HEAD> and </HEAD>
