Meta Tags

[Gene Stickley]

Is anyone familiar with how to add meta tags to the Front
Page HTML? Can anyone suggest a source for learning how
to do this?

I always add them directly in HTML/Source View.

Other than using HTML mode and inserting them manually, in FP2002:

1. right click anywhere on the page in Normal mode
2. select "Page Properties | Custom"
3. in the lower box, you will see a list of any current meta tags - add,
remove, or modify as you wish

Note however that whatever method you use you still need to know what
the various meta tags are supposed to do and how to "optimize" them to
do what you want correctly.

Do a Google search for "meta tags" - two examples:
