The document discusses 5 essential meta tags for optimizing a website for Google: 1. The DTD statement which allows for faster and deeper indexing with Google. 2. The title tag which is the most important as it is what is displayed in search results and influences clicks. 3. The description tag which Google uses to describe the page if included. 4. The keywords tag which Google actually uses against sites so niche keywords should go in content, not here. 5. The charset type tag which tells browsers how to handle characters for faster indexing with the 8859-1 tag.

1. Search Engine Optimization
The third part of this article will concentrate on the meta tags area of the optimization for Google. I
will mention them in the order they should normally appear in the source code. I will review 5
essential meta areas.

The DTD statement.
This should be the first tag of the head section of your code. The Document Type Definition
Statement allows faster and deeper indexing with Google, shortening the time your site will be in the
"trustbox" as well. HTML 4.0 or 4.01 should be the standard, and for most cases, the Transitional
type should be used.
The title, the most important.
Why? Because there are 3 elements in SEO: the listing (were title is the main element) the click-
through (were title is the main reason) and conversion (which is the object of all optimization work)
Also, if that is not reason enough (it should) it is the single element that gests indexed and used to
list the link text in the Google SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages). An average of 7 to 8 words
length is optimal.
The description.
Used by Google to create a text summary in describing the page if available, so make sure the
content of this tag is friendly to the searcher, not the search engine. If you are in a competitive
market, this tag is not taken into account, but you should have it for your visitor. An average length
of 150 characters is good.
The keywords.
Google actually uses this tag against you, by that meaning it is used as a spam check point for the
page content. Also, do not include your niche keywords here, as you will be given your competition
tips about your optimization. Put your main keywords across the content instead. Here use an
average of 200 characters.

2. Make sure you are using different sets of keywords per page, in other words, that they are unique to
each particular page.

The charset type.
Another element of the head section, this one tells the browser what to do when it encounters
certain characters in your pages. Google indexes pages easier with the 8859-1 tag, since it will not
do any data encoding, which can take a lot of extra time. The UTF-8 tag involves encoding and it
should be used for forms that accept non standard characters, like foreign users from other
countries.
