Meta Tags
- The
<meta>
tags go in the head of every webpage. - We use them for setting the character encoding and viewport settings, as well as connecting to other related files.
- Here are some common ones:
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
<meta
http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy"
content="default-src 'self' data: gap: ws: https://ssl.gstatic.com;
style-src 'self' https://fonts.googleapis.com;
font-src 'self' data: https://fonts.gstatic.com;
media-src *;
img-src 'self' data: content:;"
/>
<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />
<meta name="geo.position" content="45.5678;-75.4321" />
<meta name="geo.placename" content="Ottawa" />
<meta name="description" content="Website about how to design webpages" />
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML,CSS,JavaScript" />
<meta name="author" content="https://twitter.com/prof3ssorSt3v3" />
Always include the meta tags for charset
, viewport
, and content-security-policy
.
