HTML page. META means its data about data. It
helps search engine to categorize your page.
The data that can not be display on web page, but can
be used by various process. Like web server deliver it
or user web browsers.

EXAMPLE

<meta charset=UTF-8 />
<meta http-equiv=refresh content=5;
url=http://sites.google.com/site/cs1113webprog />
<title>Title of page</title>
<link rel=stylesheet type=text/css href=main.css />

SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION

The concept of search engine optimization is


interesting widely misunderstood subject.
There are people who tell you that they can increase
search ranking of your page. So your page show higher
in search engine listing. But most part this is not true.
Any technique that can effectively submit search
engine today will not work tomorrow because the
engineers at search engine company update their
algorithms to defeat those technique.
10

EXAMPLE

<meta name=keywords content=Amazing, New, Bill,


Page Web site, C++ Tutorials bla bla />
<meta name=description content=Amazing, New, Bill,
Page Web site, C++ Tutorials bla bla />

Keywords meta tag is originally designed to help the


search engine by allowing content authors to categorize
their contents.
But this feature is abused so badly, that search engine
have stopped using it. So its largely ignored today by
major search engines.
11

EXAMPLE

<title>
Bills Amazing New Page!
-*-*-*Amazing, New, Bill, Page, Web site,
C++ Tutorials, blah blah blah
</title>
So, SEO focus start abusing the title tag by putting the
same garbage in the title tag. Now search engine
algorithms of course ignore this too.
12

The goal of search engine is to provide useful results to


users. They want to categorize your page correctly and
want to rank it according to its actual popularity.
The HTML5 have good set of tags for making it easier
for search engines to read and understand your page.

LINE BREAK TAG

Normally your browser will decide, where to break the


line and paragraphs. You may force a line to break using
the <BR> tag.
Example:
<p>
The attackers set about acquiring the control over the
computers to be used in the attack. <br /> By scanning
using Sscan SW, a large numbers of computers attached
to the Internet.&nbsp;&nbsp; Once a computer with a
weak security scheme is identified, the attackers try a
break-in.
</p>
14

FONT ELEMENT

Sometimes you tell browser to show text something in


a different way. Can of course use CSS for this often as
best choice.
HTML does however provide few simple elements, case
where you need something just simple.

<b> Bold </b>


<i> Italic </i>

computers to be used in the attack. By
<mark>scanning using Sscan SW,</mark> a large
numbers of computers attached to the Internet. Once a
computer with a weak security scheme is identified,
the attackers try a break-in.
</p>
