    Meta tags are HTML codes . meta data do not affect how the site is shown. Instead, they provide details such as who created the site, how often it is modified, what the site is about, and which keywords represent the page's content.

    Meta tags are most often used for search engine optimization (SEO). The two most critical meta tags used in SEO are: description and keywords. These are sometimes used by search engines to place the pages in the search directory, and they are used to provide a short description of the Web page in the search results.

    Meta tags are HTML codes that are inserted into the header on a web page, after the title tag. They take a variety of forms and serve a variety of purposes, but in the context of search engine optimization when people refer to meta tags, they are usually referring to the meta description tag and the meta keywords tag.

    Meta tags are really not what they used to be, but still some are important. Description meta tag wan't bring you a higher PageRank but it will definitely affect the way your site is described in the SERP result page. Think about it - this is the message that will make a person decide weather or not to open your link or the next one in the list. It's short and has to be very convincing. Don't leave it to the crawler to pick some text from the body of the page.
    Here is an interesting article about meta tags: http://www.innhand.com/what-are-meta-tags-and-how-they-affect-google.html

    Meta elements are the HTML or XHTML <meta … > element used to provide structured metadata about a Web page. Multiple elements are often used on the same page: the element is the same, but its attributes are different. Meta elements can be used to specify page description, keywords and any other metadata not provided through the other headelements and attributes.

    Meta tags are HTML tags that provide information about a web page to web crawlers/programs that visit your website. They are not visible to normal human visitors.

    Meta tag is not invisible for any user and search engine .

    While you open particular site that press Ctrl+u you definitely show all code of web site with meta tag.

    And Meta tag is very important for Search engine optimization process.
