WEB1034 - No keywords are defined for the page

  • Article

The <meta name="keywords"> tag is missing. Each page should have a <meta name="keywords"> tag.

Explanation

Each page should have a unique set of keywords that describe the contents of the page. Keywords should be contained inside a single <meta name="keywords"> tag in the page <head> tag.

Details

Search engines use the <meta name="keywords"> tag to identify keywords relevant to the contents of a page.

Use a descriptive and representative keyword phrase that people might search for in the <meta name="keywords"> tag, and that accurately describes the information that is provided on the page.

Example

The following is an example of a correctly formatted <title> tag, with <meta name="description"> and <meta name="keywords"> tags in the <head> tag section.

<head>
    <title>Contact Proseware, Inc.</title>
    <meta name="description" content="Contact information for Proseware, Inc., including addresses, phone numbers, and email"/>
    <meta name="keywords" content="Proseware,Proseware applications,Proseware utilities,Proseware tools,Proseware server tools"/>
</head>
