OK. I have a fairly new website http://www.skateset.com and I added meta tags (check my source). But for some reason, when I type in keywords, ths site doesn't show up on google or any other search engine! Sometimes I get back with NO RESPONSES! So I guess something is wrong, any ideas on how to get some people coming?
the big search engines don't use meta data for indexing. You aren't going to automatically rank for the terms just because you used them in your meta data.
you need alot more content to get noticed by a search engine. you also might want to remove the frames.
If you want to get to grips with optimising your site, these are good starting points: http://www.seomoz.org/beginners.php http://www.highrankings.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=833
Meta tags are not even used in SEO any more. The main factors are backlinks, backlinks and more backlinks. The only onpage things worth doing are h1 tags, and using correct title tags. Oh yeah, and lose the frames.
u must have those keywords as anchor text in some other big sites or atleast in your site.for search engines title, bold letters, anchor text so on will count.
