(Webtrends Optimize,2020)

Meta tags are HTML tags that provide metadata about a webpage. They are placed in the head section of the HTML document and typically include information such as the page's title, description, and keywords. The title tag is often used as the text displayed in the browser's tab or title bar, while the description tag is used to provide a summary of the page's content for search engines and social media sharing. The keywords tag is used to provide a list of relevant keywords for the page, which can be used by search engines to index and rank the page in search results.

It is important to note that the use of keywords meta tag is not considered as a ranking factor in most of the search engine. However, the title and description tags can be important for SEO, as they are often used as the text displayed in search engine results.
