META TAGs is not something worth to be argued on. Everybody knows that they are ignored by all major search engines. Care about MSN - well then you should know that MSN occupies a mere 8% of the Global search market.
I use description tag but on pages which has a lot of text, I can easily even ignore it....go for it guys...go for the METAs and be happy  |
Don't Drop the Meta-Tags
Several years ago the search engines devalued the use of meta-tags in determining rankings. But because they use the meta-tags as page descriptions in their SERP pages, you must make special efforts to ensure that the content presented to searchers inspires them to click on your links rather than your competitors'.
If you don't put meta-tags on your website's pages, then Yahoo and MSN (with a combined market share of around 45%) will just guess at what to put in the description of your website. They will pull phrases out of context (much the way Google does) from your site and slap them in there. The result is not nearly as inviting as it could have been otherwise. That's why it is always beneficial to learn to write effective meta-tags....
