metatags

Invisible webpage labels

Metatags are snippets of text embedded in a webpage's code that describe its content to search engines and browsers.

They don't appear on the page itself but influence how the page is indexed and displayed in search results: The SEO consultant recommended updating the metatags to improve rankings.

Common metatags specify page descriptions, keywords, and author information.
