What are Meta Tags

Meta tags are snippets of text and image content that summarize a webpage. They appear when links are shared on social media and help search engines understand your site’s purpose and legitimacy.

While meta tags are embedded in the code and not visible to users, our tool lets you enter any URL to visualize and edit the meta tag code, making optimization easy!

Why Do Meta Tags Matter

How valuable sharing on social media and ranking in Google are for your site determines how significantly you should focus on your meta tags.

Imagine walking into an abandoned store with shelves full of dust and a musty smell in the air. A link to your site on Facebook or LinkedIn is often the very first interaction you have with a visitor, and if it looks empty and unmaintained like a barren store, they’ll never even consider clicking the link.

As part of most digital marketing campaigns, teams often create compelling copy and striking images, which conveniently lends itself perfectly to being a part of the metadata of your webpage. Double the value, half the work!

Moreover, generating metadata can be an important exercise in developing your concise sales pitch. Google only gives you 60 characters for your title and about 105 characters for your description—the perfect opportunity to tightly refine your value proposition.

Do Meta Tags Help with SEO

The SEO community is definitive on this topic: the most important meta tag for ranking is your title tag. No other meta tags affect SEO rankings, but that's not to say they're unimportant!

• Title - Very Important.
• Description - Less Important.
• Image - Moderately Important.
• Keyword - Negative Importance.

Historically, the "keyword" meta tag was a significant part of ranking, but in 2009, Google made it official that the keyword meta tag is no longer a part of ranking and could potentially hurt your ranking if abused.

Instead, modern SEO strategies focus on ranking highly in Google with high-quality content, supplemented by meta tag tweaks.

Once you start ranking, it's important that people actually click on your site, which is where other parts of meta tag data play an important role, especially the meta image and meta description.

Title Tag

A title tag is the second most important factor for on-page SEO, only trailing high-quality content.

In technical terms, it is a simple HTML code tag <title>Title</title> which you place at the very top of your webpage. But its simplicity hides the fact that the 50-60 characters that Google gives you will affect your website traffic in several ways.

• Google Search - The main link that people click on.
• Social Sites - The title people see on Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.
• Browser Tab - Subliminal marketing that persists in a tab.
• External Links - Commonly the text other sites use to link to your site.

Tips for an Effective Title

Consider the trifecta: Brand, marketing, and SEO. Keep your title around 60 characters and put the keywords you’re focusing on first. Don't go overboard with keywords; at most, stick to two.

Places where your title tag shows up

Meta Description

Meta descriptions, while not useful for SEO reasons, are incredibly valuable for engaging users who will click through to your site.

The meta description often serves as a pitch to people who find your website on Google or social media sites. While it's not required, and Google can use text from your website instead of what you specify in the metadata, it's better to control the description text where you can.

Meta Image or OG:Image

With the visual nature of the web, your Meta Tag Image is the most valuable graphic content you can create to encourage users to click and visit your website.

Most digital marketing and SEO websites ignore the value of graphic content since it requires design skills. But with free tools like Figma and Canva, anyone can create compelling imagery to add to their meta tags.

On sites like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, your meta image is 3x larger than your text content!

Create Meta Tags for SEO and Digital Marketing

As meta tag data can be overwhelming and your time is limited, you should focus on two things: title tag and meta image.

The primary reason for building this tool is that it’s incredibly difficult to focus on the main factors that matter for meta tags. Iterating on titles and images (and descriptions) is painful!
