About Meta Tag Generator
Meta tags are elements in the head of an HTML page that describe it to search engines and social networks. This generator writes the title and meta description, a robots directive, an optional canonical link, Open Graph tags (og:title, og:description, og:url, og:image, og:site_name), and Twitter Card tags. The card type is summary_large_image when an image URL is given and summary otherwise. Values are HTML-escaped, and the title and description lengths are reported.

Questions about Meta Tag Generator
How long should a title tag and meta description be?
Google truncates by pixel width, not characters, but about 50 to 60 characters for titles and 150 to 160 for descriptions usually fit on desktop. Put the most important words first in case of truncation.
Does the meta keywords tag still matter?
No. Google has said since 2009 that it ignores the keywords meta tag for ranking, which is why this generator does not output it. Spend the effort on the title and description instead.
