Meta Tags Complete List
For SEO purpose of website, I have compiled a complete possible list of Meta Tags in both HTML and XHTML format. You can find an online Meta Tags Generator link in the end too which will also suggest you that how much words you should use for each element where necessary. It will restrict you to add more than required hence meeting the SEO strict rules.
