Your website meta description tag is one of the top solutions in proper SEO . This meta tag, placed in the head section of the website page code, has two main functions; it helps improve page rank from the keywords in the tag, and it gives a catch phrase aimed to complement the title. The meta description is often seen in search results from Google, Yahoo and the other search engines, along with the title. That is why it is very important to think about how the title and the meta description should work together, to get the top search engine rankings you are striving for.

  1. The meta description should complement your title and website content.
  2. Use high ranking keywords whenever possible in your meta tags and web page content.
  3. Write compelling descriptions. The meta description will often be seen in the search engine results (SERP). Make sure your descriptions stand out from the rest of the competitors.
  4. Yahoo assigns more weight (greater importance) to meta descriptions compared to MSN. Google, however, gives the lowest value to your web page's meta descriptions.
  5. The index limit for MSN is 200 characters, while Yahoo indexes up to 350 characters. Google has a 156 character limit on meta descriptions
In summation, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and top search engine rankings depend on many different criteria. The more complete the effort in properly and completely SEO your website, the rewards are higher placement in the search engines. Achieving number 1 in Google means do everything right, scoring the highest in Google's algorithm all but guarantees top search engine rankings.
