Or for that matter – What is a meta tag?
How many of you have heard of a meta tag? These beauties are not something you will visually see on your website but they sure can help your rankings on search engines. And we all want to increase how we are found online.
Meta tags are snippets of text that describe a webpage’s content. The reason you may not have heard of meta tags is because they don’t visually display on the page, but are only in the page’s HTML source code. Meta tags are content descriptors that help tell search engines what a web page is about.

Some of you may know what a link is and others may not. For those who are wondering what the heck I’m talking about…
A link (short form for hyperlink) is a website item that allows you to jump to a new location when you click or tap it. You can find links on almost every web page you go to; a great example of a link is the navigation menu items you use on a website. But links don’t just need to be attached to only text, they can also be added to images or other HTML elements.
There are several types of internal links. There are links on your homepage, in your menu (navigation bar), within a post feed, and many more. But you can also add links within your content.
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, how can this help out your SEO rankings?

So you bought a domain…. What do you do next? Did you put up an Under Construction page and then leave it for…. Well I’m not going to say how long, because I don’t know how long the page has been up. ?
Usually, the Under Construction page can show that you took your website offline while you were working on it. This is sometimes done because the website is going through major edits so visitors can’t see the work while the editing is going on. The standard time for having this page up is 1 – 2 weeks.
But if your page has been up there longer this can impact your business.
