meta tag
A coding statement written in HTML that describes some aspect of the contents of a web page. Information contained in a meta tag is used by search engines (e.g., Yahoo!) to index a page so that someone searching for the type of information on the page will be able to find it. Two important types of meta tags are keywords meta tags and description meta tags. The keywords meta tag lists the words or phrases that best describe the contents of the page. The description meta tag includes a brief one- or two-sentence description of the page.
