Ok so i need some advice from some fellow Webdesigners, about *Meta tags and my website...

Right now my start page "index" only have meta tags: This is how it looks like...

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="Description" content="Blueglue.us with dedicated Inuyasha stuff, upload your music videos and fan-art! View game trailers and much more! You are one click away come join us!" />
<meta name="keywords" content="games, anime, Music videos, Inuyasha music videos, Halo machinima, Dreamcast Trailers, Inuyasha,
upload, downloads, chat, video lounge, v2, content, Downloads" />
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow" />
<meta name="copyright" content="Blueglue.us" />
<meta name="author" content="Jonas Cederlund" />
<meta name="language" content="English" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="30" />

Now index.html is not my only main page and i want to have all of my main pages active with Meta Tags. Should i use the exact same column of code on every page? probably change the description?  Soooo Cool

And one more thing, how important is it to use "No Index" for site crawlers?  Smiling

Any help appreciated!!!  Bouncin for Joy

Sounds like you are on the right track.  I would suggest changing the description and keywords between pages, and really try your best to target them based on what that specific page is about.

"No Index" will do exactly that. Where do you want to use it?

Well i have thought about it, and i think i will use "No Index" on my sub pages and pages that's Iframe or included in some sort of script its alot...

A good example is

Take this main page on my homepage...
http://www.blueglue.us/Lostvikings.html
And then take one of the several pages connected to it like -
http://www.blueglue.us/Lost%20Vikings%20videolibrary.html
and i think this is a good place to use "No Index" on my site.

As a rule Radeon, you shouldn't leave spaces in the names of your files like you're doing here Lost%20Vikings%20videolibrary.html because of that you are getting those "%20". It would be preferable if you separate each word with an hyphen like Lost-Vikings-video-library.html

So you don't want google to index all of those urls?

If that the case it would've been easier to create a directory with some name i.e. vikings, upload all your files with that category that you don't want to be indexed and set it from your robots.txt file.

Just my two cents.
