The Site Description setting may be used to provide a blog description, which some search engines and blog indexers use to identify and locate blogs.
To specify a blog description:
| 1. | Click the Settings & Security tab. |
| 2. | Click Publishing Defaults in the Options list. |
| 3. | Click General. |
| 4. | Scroll down to Site Description. |
| 5. | Enter the required text into the Site Description text box. |
| 6. | Click the Save Settings button at the bottom of the page. |
How does the weblog inform search engines and weblog indexers about Site Descriptions?
The site description is inserted into a <META> tag in the HTML code of the weblog. This <META> tag is used by some search engines and weblog indexers.
For example, if the following text was entered in the Site Description field:
The weblog of one Example J. User. this <META> tag would be inserted into the <HEAD> section of the HTML code: <meta name="Description" content="The weblog of one Example J. User."> |
