Re: [LUG] CSS and search engines

Dear All

Not strictly Linux, can you help though? I am currently learning to
create web pages with style sheets etc... but...

How do I create a rule that will tell search engines what my site is all
about? Do I do this in the style sheet or in the <head> of my web page?
What is the command? I have heard it is meta... something or other? Can
folks send me examples?



Here's a quick example I've just ripped from the SWLUG site: -

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<meta name="KEYWORDS" content="free, community, php, opensource, open source, gpl, linux, uk, suse, redhat, mandrake" />
<meta name="DESCRIPTION" content="" />
<meta name="ROBOTS" content="INDEX,FOLLOW" />
<meta name="resource-type" content="document" />
<meta name="author" content="South West (UK) Linux User Group" />
<meta name="distribution" content="Global" />
<meta name="rating" content="General" />


The main tag you're interested in is the KEYWORDS tag, but some of the others may be useful too.


Thanks,
David.
