- Metadata is data (information) about data.
- The <meta> tag provides metadata about the HTML document.
- Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but will be machine parsable.
- Meta elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata.
- The metadata can be used by browsers (how to display content or reload page), search engines (keywords), or other web services.
eg:
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="description" content="Free Web tutorials">
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML,CSS,XML,JavaScript">
<meta name="author" content="Hege Refsnes">
</head>
