    Does this tag needs to be like this

    1-<meta name="robots" content="index, follow">
    2-<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">
    3-<meta name="robots" content="index, follow"/>

    which one is the right one?? I am using the first one but when validating in w3.org it say its wrong??

    does it really matter or bots won't read it and they will index the page??

    your help is highly appreciated

    Thanks

    You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).

    This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.

    How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the

    I am using this one :
    <meta name="robots" content="index, follow">

    But This metatag can also be typed with the / in the end of the tag.
