In this post I shall be revealing to you the most profitable meta tag settings that will shoot your blog in terms of ranking and traffic generation. I also will show you how to add these Meta Tags in your Blogger. Like I said, this will certainly improve your blog SEO and generate swarms of traffic. Blogger requires that you must add these Meta Tags.

Meta tags are nothing but certain centralized description of a web page. But at the same time it is very important to improve the search engine ranking of your blog.

From these Meta Tags, search engine crawlers/bots can easily find your blog documents such as: title, description, author, language, country, platform, keywords. If your blog is a special niche blog, then Meta keywords and Meta description will help your blog attract huge amount of traffic from search engines.

In WordPress there are thousands of plugins for meta tag. But, in blogger you have to import your meta tags manually. See Below for Blogger meta tags and a brief description of the meta tag.

1. meta content=’Blog Description’ name=’description’
This is the meta tag used to show a crawler the brief description of your blog. It’s called “meta description”. Remove “Blog Description” and put your own blog’s description.

2. meta content=’Keywords′ name=’keywords’
This is the meta tag used to insert hidden keywords to your blog. Paste your keywords in place of “Keywords”. You can add as many keywords as possible, but remember, 6 or 7 keywords are better for SEO.

At first you have to make a keyword analysis of your niche then find the important and relevant keywords for your blog then select and push the meta keywords in your blog.

3. meta content=’Author Name’ name=’Author’
This is the meta tag used to specify the author of the blog/article/post. You can use your name or g+ profile link in the place of Author Name. By this meta tag you can verify authorship on Google+.

4. meta content=’G+ Publisher Page URL’ name=’Publisher’
This meta tag is used to verify publisher page at Google+. Use your Google+ page url in place of “G+publisher page URL”. This is very important for multi-author blogs.

5. meta content=’Author Email Address’ name=’Email’
This meta tag is used to specify a mail address of the author. Use your email address in the place of “Author Email Address”.

6. meta content=’index, follow’ name=’robots'
This meta tag specifies the permissions for a search engine crawlers or bots.
“Index” gives the permission to take the article in your blog to search engines.
“Follow” indicates to the crawlers that links in your blog should be followed. If you don’t want links in your blog to be followed then make your blog a no-follow by using “nofollow” in the place of follow. But remember it affects site-wide.

7. meta content=’Language Name’ name=’language’
