Header Tags, Meta Tags, Google Search

Hi, just started using iweb 09 for the very first time, everything is common sense and easy to use but i've been pondering on how to add a header tag or a meta tag where a search engine such as google, yahoo or bing can find my website based on keywords i'd like my site to come up under. Any comments would be appreciated, thanks.

Have a look at the SEO section of iWeb for Musicians starting here.....

Meta, keywords, description Head tags

Hi all,
Can someone define the difference between the head tags and how best to use them for improved SEO:
Meta
Description
Keywords
And is there a difference between description and the title of a page?
Thanks in advance

Can someone define the difference between the head tags and how best to use them for improved SEO:
Meta
Description
Keywords
And is there a difference between description and the title of a page?
Yes, there is. <title>unique page name here</title>
Meta Description = a brief (8 -15 word) sentence about the page and what it contains. Google uses your page title and meta description in search results pages so this is the very first impression people have of your site.
Meta Keywords are ignored by search engines. If adding them to your pages makes you sleep better at night, fine. But it will have no impact on your ranking.
What matters most is the content in your <h1>, <h2>, <h3> and <p> tags.

A title and maybe a meta description belong to every single
page. But
much more important is usable and properly structured
content.

Put this in the head tags if I don't want page to index?

Hi!
Is this the line of code I paste in my
<HEAD></HEAD> tags if I do not want the page to index
at all (ie: no robots finding it)?
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">
Is that all?
Thanks!

actually, the best method is put a file called robots.txt in
the root of
your site.
content looks like this:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /filename.htm (this prevents a file from being
indexed)
Disallow: /foldername/ (this prevents a folder from being
indexed)
Google robots.txt for many more options.

DEFAULT Heading, Title, Main Text...for google search result??

Hi,
Every pages when we added in iWeb it'll come with some default Text Box shown as
*"Type a heading for your webpage here", "Type the main text for your page here", "Type the title for the page" ...*
Do the above default text box helps for Google search result?
Any other useful purpose for that?

What bout Adding a Text Box? Isn't the same thing of the Default Title Box? Or it must be place at the Top ? or it already pre-set for search engines?
You could find out if its the same thing by doing the following:
Add a text box to your home page, publish your iWeb site to a folder, click on +"Visit Site Now"+ and then in Safari do +View > View Source+. Then look for the title tag that the article talks about:
<title>Your title here</title>

I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Is it necessary to add? If so, how do I add H Tags to iweb.

I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Are they necessary to add? Why would one add these tags and how do I add H Tags to iweb? And are there examples to look at? I am slowly learning about simple web design and assumed that iweb was stand alone without having to write code. Is this one of the reasons iweb is no longer supported? Thanks for looking at this!

A simple text page like this:
Heading
    sub heading
          text paragraph ....
Is traditionally represented by html tags like:
<h1>Heading</h1>
     <h2>sub heading</h2>
          <p>text paragraph ... </p>
I would guess that the use of h1-h6 tags helps search engines to understand the structure of a page as the tags imply a certain structure.
This can be compared to more generic tags like <div> that could represent any kind of content - and may be what iWeb uses (you'll have to check yourself).
I would generally recommend that you use some kind of up to date blog/site building tool, perhaps Wordpress or Squarespace (I haven't used either one myself) that support current web technologies - this should reduce your SEO issues and make it easier to properly support mobile/tablet users.

Unlocking head tag in template/procedure unclear to me

Hi,
Still battling since last friday to unlock head tag in template so that i could add an accordion in a template-based doc.
I understand that in the process of creating an accordion DW cs3 has to write something like this in head: <script src= "../Accordion/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>..."
That fact i sat editable region in my template into body only make it impossible for it to do the task, hence the error message.
Now i searched in the help doc, i found a procedure "specify editable tag attributes in a template". This procedure didnt show much helpful.
This is the steps i followed:
- opened template and, in split view, i clicked anywhere inside head
- selected head tag
- modify, templates, make attribute editable
Then nothing to select, i went by guess, nothing works and the problem still remain. And my heart still broken...

By default, your template should have an editable region in it just before the closing </head> tag. It looks like this:


Dreamweaver should be able to find that editable region and insert the <script> tag there automatically.
If you don't have an editable region like that in the <head>, open the master template, and paste the code above just before the closing </head> tag.

Add Editable Area to HEAD Tag?

I am working in DW CS 5.5.
My site has a base template and then a nested template for the Work pages.
I'm trying to make the items in the vertical menu bar of the Work page editable attributes. When I select Modify > Template > Make Editable Attribute then set Attribute to class, enter a label name and set type to Text I get this error message:
"There are no editable regions in the HEAD tag to insert the template property tag into. Please add an editable area to the HEAD tag in the base template and try again."
I'm confused because I do have an editable region in the head. What am I doing wrong?

Whoops, I should have included the top code in the base template file:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Editable Head Tags

Greetings,
I've seen a response elsewhere but I can't respond to it so I'm probably adding duplicate info. Anyway, I've acquired a template website that is built in ASP. It doesn't appear that I can edit the head tags: title, description and keywords. I tried placing the following within the head tags but it didn't work, I still can't edit it on the other pages.

<title>Title entered here+</title>


<meta name="Description" content="Description entered here">


<meta name="keywords" content="Keywords entered here." >

I've done this exact same thing for HTML websites and they work fine.

Hi Murry,
Yea, sorry, I meant to say that I AM doing it in the template. Here is the current Head of the template:

</style></head>
Here is what I replaced it with but doesn't seem to work:

</style>
<link href="../style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<style type="text/css">

In case you can't spot the difference, I added editable regions:

<title>Our Title</title>


<meta name="Description" content="Our Description">


<meta name="keywords" content="Our Keywords." >

Problem Editing HEAD tag for Facebook Open Graph

In order for pages to play nice with some of the new Facebook features they can add meta tag content to identify the page as a specific "object" in the Facebook Graph.
The problem is they ask you to add some namespace information as an attribute in the head tag and when I try to put anything in the actual tag itself I get an error:
Header must contain <head> and </head> tags.
I'm attempting to make the head tag look something like this:
<head prefix="og: http://ogp.me/ns# fb: http://ogp.me/ns/fb# my_fb_app: http://ogp.me/ns/fb/my_fb_app#">
I have an end tag for head, I just thing the validation fails if you put anything in the head tag itself.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Greg

<tt>prefix</tt> is not an HTML atttribute: it is part of RDF (which I haven't got my head round at all). However I get the same error on apex.oracle.com using
<head class="foo"><tt>class</tt> is one of the HTML global attributes permitted on the <a href="<tt>head</tt> element, so this is definitely a parsing bug in APEX.
Couple of possible workarounds:
<li>In the examples in RDFa spec the <tt>prefix</tt> occurs in the <tt>html</tt> element, which APEX 4.1 will permit.
<li>Add the <tt>prefix</tt> to the <tt>head</tt> element using a Dynamic Action/JavaScript on page load.
You might try these and see whether they are compatible with whatever Facebook is doing.
Please include the following information when posting a question (especially if it might be a bug):
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used

Unbalanced Head Tag

Hi
Below is the code for the whole page – I think I have only one head tag, can’t seem to find another. What do you mean about “both bodys”?

                      <p>On 1 June 2000 Alan moved to Barbury Castle, which has since been improved and expanded in the quest for more winners. He have also made Barbury Castle into a home for his young family. Alan met his wife, Rachel, when they both worked for the “Duke” and we were married in Antigua in 1998.

Template: error "Closed a head tag that was left unclosed."

Hello,
I have just found out why an error occurs with one of my template and I thought I'd post the solution for further reference in case someone encounters the same problem—it has bothered me for a quite a while. I'm using Dreamweaver CS4.
Each time I opened the template, I had a message regarding the <head> tag. The message said that some invalid HTML had been corrected and the so-called invalid HTML was apparently "a <head> tag that was left unclosed":
There was no closing <head> tag missing in my template and DW wasn't correcting anything in the code either even it said it did.
My template started with:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

<script type="text/javascript" src="../assets_design/js/tools.js"></script>

<meta name="keywords" content="..." />

This error message appeared because the two lines "

<body class="@@(_document['class'])@@" onload="@@(onload)@@">

http://www.showbagsusa.com//Templates/showbagtemplate.dwt
look on line 146.
</td>
the second one doesn't belong there, because there is no
matched up opening
tag.
then on line 166, there's another closing template editable
area comment
that isn't paired with an opening one before it.

Multiple head tags on instance pages

Hi there,
I have a problem whereby pages created from a template are
producing multiple head tags, 3 pairs in fact.
I have used the Check Template Syntax and it is OK.
If I remove the doctype it does not create these duplicate
head areas.
Here is my doctype in the dwt:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN"
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xml:lang="en">
<head>

and here is what is being output in instance pages:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN"
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xml:lang="en"><head></head><head></head><head></head>
I have searched the forums and the web in general but have
found no help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
kind regards

No. But I have recommended consistently that Nested templates
are too
complex for casual use. Frankly, I have not found a good
scenario that
would compel me to use them at all. I don't encourage that
you use them
either - why are you?

Dreamweaver

> tag around the entire head area.
Why would you do this? All you need there is the doctitle and
the head
region.
