 The tags make it possible to add a description of the page for the search engines as well as keywords for the Website. These tags are contained between the tags and are thus
invisible for the visitors of your site. For all your articles, it is
important to have a description and a series of keywords so that
Joomla can incorporate them in META tags of the page. It is very simple to do, click on “Meta Info” in the right
block when you are writing an article. You will be
able to change them when you want.
Be most concise and precise possible.
While you are there, do not forget to complete the “Metadata” in the global configuration of Joomla.
How many websites appear on Google with description like : “Joomla - Content Management System and Web Application Framework.”… to
strongly avoid!
You can also modify the META directly in the file of configuration of Joomla:
$mosConfig_MetaDesc = 'Joomla - Content Management System and Web Application Framework';
$mosConfig_MetaKeys = 'Joomla, joomla';
Even if with final these META tags are not an important part of the optimization process, take time to complete
them carefully in the absence of contents, Google will use them as description. The directories often take the META tags description and keywords by default. For recall, your description
should not exceed 200 characters.
For the list of keywords ($mosConfig_MetaKeys), it
should not exceed 20 words. Beyond these limits, you risk
on-optimization of your META tags.
