Use Meta-tags to get your site registered on popular Search Engines.

To find information, a kind of service, a specific data or an organization on the Internet users will often go to Search Providers (or Search Engines). Some of the more popular search providers include AltaVista, Yahoo, Goto, and Excite. Search providers use special software to collect web site information from around the Internet. This software will look in the Meta-tag area of your web site. The Meta-tag area is included in the header of your web page and is hidden from the user. Meta-tags include Keywords and Descriptions of your web site.

netStartClass provides you with a utility to create and manage your Meta-tag keywords and description. To add Meta-tags to your web site select Add Search Engine Tags from the drop down menu from Web Page Manager options.


Search engines will look to your Meta-tag information for "keywords" and a "description" of your web site. These allow the search engines to easily index your page using the keywords you specify, along with a description of the site.

Description - Use this description to give a text portrait of your web site, activity, or organization. This is the description returned by Search Providers to give users an idea of what your site is about.

Keywords - "Keywords" are used by Search Providers to index your site. If your Keywords match those input by someone using the Search service then your web site and description is returned to the user. Keywords can be groups of words. For instance if your group is interested in science experiments you may choose to use several phrases common to this theme: science, science fair, science kits. Each keyword or string of words should be separated by a comma.
