    The meta description is a ~160 character snippet, a tag in HTML, that summarizes a page's content. Search engines show the meta description in search results mostly when the searched for phrase is contained in the description. Optimizing the meta description is a very important aspect of on-page SEO.

    The <meta> tag provides metadata about the HTML document. Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but will be machine parsable.

    Meta elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata.

    The metadata can be used by browsers (how to display content or reload page), search engines (keywords), or other web services.

    There are three important parts of Meta tags that you can use:

    1. Title – <title>Title text here</title>
    2. Description – <meta name=”description” content=”This is where you put your site’s summary”/>
    3. Keywords – <meta name=”keywords” content=”SEO, Hacker, Google, Search, etc”/>
