About this meta tag generator
Meta tags are short lines in the head section of a web page. The title names the page. The description sums it up. The robots line says whether search engines may list the page and follow its links. The canonical link points to the URL you want treated as the main copy.
Fill in the fields and copy the generated HTML into the head section of your page. Quotes, ampersands and angle brackets are escaped so they do not break the code.
A good tag helps a search engine understand the page, but it does not control the exact search result. Google and other search engines may shorten or replace a title or description for a particular search.
What each tag does
Write for a person first. Character counts are useful guides, not fixed ranking rules.
| Tag | Practical advice |
|---|---|
| Title | Give every important page a clear, specific title; around 50–60 characters often fits |
| Description | Summarize the page honestly; around 140–160 characters often fits |
| Canonical | Use the full URL of the version you want indexed |
| Robots | Keep index, follow for a normal public page; choose noindex only on purpose |
How to generate meta tags
- Write the title and description: Say exactly what the page offers. Use a different title and description on each important page.
- Add the preferred URL: Paste the full canonical address and choose whether the page may be indexed and its links followed.
- Copy the HTML: Put the copied lines inside the page's head section, then check the live page source.
Frequently asked questions
Where do I put these meta tags?
Put them between the opening and closing head tags in the HTML. Keep one title, one meta description, one robots tag and one canonical link per page.
What is the best title and description length?
There is no exact character limit because search results use available width and may be rewritten. About 50–60 characters for a title and 140–160 for a description are practical starting points.
Why is there no meta keywords field?
Major search engines such as Google do not use the meta keywords tag for web ranking. Adding a list of keywords does not help the page rank, so this generator leaves it out.
Will noindex remove a page at once?
No. A search engine must crawl the page again and see the noindex rule. Do not block that URL in robots.txt before the crawler can read the tag.
