About meta tags
This tool generates the HTML meta tags that describe your page to browsers and search engines — title, description, keywords, robots, viewport, charset, author and theme colour. It shows live character counts so your title and description fit search results, and gives you ready-to-paste code. It runs in your browser.
How Meta Tag Generator works
How to use it
- Fill in your page title, description and any other fields.
- Watch the character counts so the title stays near 50–60 and the description near 150–160.
- Copy the generated tags into the <head> of your page.
What the tags do
The title and description are what search engines usually show in results. Viewport makes the page responsive on phones, charset sets the text encoding, robots controls indexing, and theme-color tints the browser UI on mobile.
Why length matters
Search engines truncate long titles and descriptions. Keeping within the recommended lengths means your snippet shows in full and reads well, which can improve click-through.
