• Meta tags help search engines index web pages so they appear with appropriate keyword searches.
• They are crucial in influencing users to click. Think of them as mini advertisements!

• Search by company name. Does the resulting listing “sell” you?
• Search by keywords. Does your most appropriate webpage come up?
