Those Meta Tags

Those meta tags do make a difference!  I think it was a couple of months ago that Google said they are ignoring meta tags.  Well I mentioned earlier that I did a bit of a mess up with my gardening template.  When I finally got things back running as they should I noticed my traffic was down a bit.  Then I got the big slap a couple of days ago by having my PR on that blog reduced from 3 to 2 so decided to do a bit of investigating.  The only real change I could find is I somehow forgot to put the meta tags back into the template!  After putting the meta tags back into the template the traffic Google as well as other search engines returned.  So Google is paying attention to the meta tags! 

It looks like I need to go back and edit my keywords for the meta tags on my blogs.  This is always a bit of basic blog housekeeping that needs to be done from time to time.  Some keywords get a bit stagnate while other keywords gain higher ranking.  So I'm off to do a bit of tinkering!
