Definition of Meta Tags
"HTML tag that provides information about a Web page"

Meta Tag is a very important html tag for using info about your webpage.Search Engines known your website through meta tag like meta title,meta description,meta tag etc.

Meta tags are special HTML tags that are inserted into the header on a web page, after the title tag. They are used for giving a short description about a website.

Meta Tags are special HTML code which provide information for crawler and they user.

Meta tag in html is not a required tag when you're creating your web pages; many pages don't use the tag at all, and I must confess that I've not used it on my home page, although I put it into this page by way of demonstration. To put it briefly, the meta tag is used by search engines to allow them to more accurately list your site in their indexes.
Example:
<head>
<meta name="description" content="Free Web tutorials" />
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML,CSS,XML,JavaScript" />
<meta name="author" content="Hege Refsnes" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
</head>

Meta tags are nothing but list of keywords which are commonly used to search the content of your website by the users.

A meta tag is a line of HTML coding that contains metadata about a webpage. Meta tag information doesn't change how the page looks; it won’t be seen by the website viewer, unless they are viewing your source code. There are two common types of meta tags — meta description tags and meta keywords tags.

Meta title tags are html tags that are used for describing about the page content

Meta tags are HTML codes that are inserted into the header on a web page, after the title tag.In SEO when people refer to meta tags, they are usually referring to the meta description tag and the meta keywords tag.
