SPECIALLY FOR HF MEMBERS
Hello. I'm gonna discuss here about the most important meta tags' configuration for your blogger blog for better SEO ranking.Use the following code after the <head> tag.
Each of the tags are discussed bellow. Just scroll down.
Here is the Full code sample:
Quote:<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
<meta content='AUTHOR NAME' name='author'/>
<meta content='BLOG'S DESCRIPTION FOR HOME PAGE GOES HERE' name='DESCRIPTION'/>
<meta content='BLOG'S MOST INTERESTING KEYWORDS FOR HOME PAGE' name='KEYWORDS'/>
</b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
<title><data:blog.pageName/>:<data:blog.title/></title>
<meta content='BLOG'S DESCRIPTION FOR OTHER PAGES AND POSTS' name='DESCRIPTION'/>
<meta content='BLOG'S KEYWORDS FOR OTHER PAGES AND POSTS' name='KEYWORDS'/>
</b:if>
<meta content='index, follow' name='robots'/>
<meta content='2 days' name='revisit-after'/>
<meta content='en-us' name='language'/>
<meta content='COUNTRY SHORT CODE' name='geo.country'/>
<meta content='NAME OF THE PLACE' name='geo.placename'/>
<meta content='global' name='distribution'/>
<meta content='text/html; charset=UTF-8' http-equiv='Content-Type'/>
<meta content='true' name='MSSmartTagsPreventParsing'/>
<meta content='general' name='rating'/>
<link expr:href='data:blog.url' rel='canonical'/>
Now Lets Discuss about the meta tags:
Quote:<meta content='AUTHOR NAME' name='author'/>This tag is used to inform a search engine who the author of the blog is.
Quote:<meta content='BLOG'S DESCRIPTION FOR HOME PAGE GOES HERE' name='DESCRIPTION'/>This tag informs the search engine what is your blog actually about.
Quote:<meta content='BLOG'S MOST INTERESTING KEYWORDS FOR HOME PAGE' name='KEYWORDS'/>This tag informs a search engine about the most interesting topics of your blog.
Quote:<meta content='index, follow' name='robots'/>This allows search engine to crawl. If you put NOFOLLOW in content field. Your blog'll block search engines for indexing.
Quote:<meta content='2 days' name='revisit-after'/>This tag asks a search engine to come back in 2 days and index again.
Quote:<meta content='en-us' name='language'/>This tag tells about the language of your blog.
Quote:<meta content='COUNTRY SHORT CODE' name='geo.country'/>This tells a search engine about your blog's base country. Ex.: Use IN for India.
Quote:<meta content='NAME OF THE PLACE' name='geo.placename'/>This tells a search Engine about the base place of your blog.
Quote:<meta content='global' name='distribution'/>This is not important. This tells about degree of distribution of your blog.
Quote:<meta content='text/html; charset=UTF-8' http-equiv='Content-Type'/>This tells about your content type.
Quote:<meta content='true' name='MSSmartTagsPreventParsing'/>This disables a feature that only appeared in the IE6 betas.
Quote:<meta content='general' name='rating'/>This tag says the rate of your page's audience appropriateness. Such as safe for kids or general etc.

Between the <head> tags. E.g <head> meta tags here </head>
Keyword meta tags doesn't do anything, Google doesn't read them and they're to no benefit, they do more harm than help.

Those Who are Facing problems while copy & Pasting, I'd like to recommend you Change the values before Saving them. Otherwise If you just copy & Paste and hit save, You'll Face an error like bellow.
Error parsing XML, line 9, column 21: Element type "meta" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".
Because of a single quote inside the code.
If you still facing Problem just post here.
