5. META Tags - Metadata Elements
The following is a partial list of metadata elements that may be used in the overall site structuring, organization, and search engine marketing strategy.

• META Description Tag
  Some search engines will index the META Description Tag found in the section of your web pages. META Keywords Tag
  The META Keywords Tag is where you list keywords and keyword phrases that you've targeted for that specific page. META Language Tag
  In HTML elements, the language attribute specifies the natural language. This document is mostly concerned with how to specify the primary language(s) (there could be more than one) and the base language (there is only one) in HTML documents. META Link Relationship Tag
  It is helpful for search results to reference the beginning of the collection of documents in addition to the page hit by the search. You may help search engines by using the link element with rel="start" along with the title attribute. rel="nofollow" - Link Relationship Attribute
  By adding rel="nofollow" to a hyperlink, a page indicates that the destination of that hyperlink SHOULD NOT be afforded any additional weight or ranking by user agents which perform link analysis upon web pages (e.g. search engines).

6. Robots META Tag
The Robots META Tag is meant to provide users who cannot upload or control the /robots.txt file at their websites, with a last chance to keep their content out of search engine indexes and services.

• Googlebot Robots META Tag
  The Robots META Tag for Googlebot is meant to provide users who cannot upload or control the /robots.txt file at their websites, with a last chance to keep their content out of Google's indexes and services.
• MSNBot Robots META Tag

The SEO Consultants Directory Admin istrator and Directory Editors were involved in a discussion via email where our interpretation of the Metadata standards are being challenged.

8. Revisit-After META Tag
The revisit-after META tag is not supported by any major search engines, it never was supported and probably never will be. It was developed for, and supported by, Vancouver Webpages and their local search engine searchBC.

9. HTML Comments Tag - HTML Markup
There has been a myth that has perpetuated over the years where keywords and keyword phrases listed inside HTML comments tags would add a boost to the overall relevancy of the page. This is not true based on numerous tests we've performed during the years 2002 and 2003.
