I've NEVER encountered this kind of <META tag> before - feedback please

<META content="keywords appeared here" name=keywords>

Just wondering if anyone's seen above meta tag beofre? Normally I use these:

<META NAME="keywords" content="I PUT MY OWN KEYWORDS HERE">
<META NAME="description" content="MY OWN DESCRIPTIVE TEXT HERE">

Could I abandon the ones I normally use in exchange for the
<META content="" name=keywords> ???

The site I saw this at had no other meta tags aside from this new tag I discovered.

 

It's the same thing, just name and content are in a different order. Both are valid META tags.

 

Yeah, it doesn't make a difference. I usually go name, followed by content to keep things organized and easy to read.

 

See these tags in HTML of my sig:

<META NAME="keywords" content="I PUT MY OWN KEYWORDS HERE">
<META NAME="description" content="MY OWN DESCRIPTIVE TEXT HERE">

Could I entirely delete those in exchange for this tag then?:

<META content="" name=keywords>

Reason I ask, is because this guy uses just the one tag and wondering.

 

Your example uses both a keyword and description tag. You may have just missed it.

 

Apparatus: Could I delete the keyword and description tags in HTML on my page here?

And replace those with: <META content="" name=keywords>


What I mean is, will that meta tag work for the keyword and description tags I'm currently using? I never knew about this option before, if it's an actual option.

 

It's nothing special. It's just the layout of the tag in a different order. If you want to use meta tags without any descriptions as you;re wanting to do, go for it. It's your site.
