Can one set the page's Description and Keywords from the Code Behind?
I got a page that will display a company's information.
Depending on what company are loaded, I want to build the Keywords and Description MetaData dynamicallyASP.NET 1.1 or 2.0?
Oh, I think you use 1.1...
OK, you have your meta tags, as usual on your page. Add two attributes to it. An ID, and a runat="server" attribute. So you end up with something like
<meta name="keywords" content="default keywords" id="MetaKeywords1" runat="server"/>
Then in your codebehind, you should see MetaKeywords1 declared as an HtmlGenericControl control. If not, you should add it there because Visual Studio sometimes misses out on these things.
THEN, in the Page Load event,
MetaKeywords1.Attributes["content"] = "blah,blah2,blah3";
oooooh (stupid sounding ooooh)...easy like that.
Just been wondering...is it worth even setting the meta data for pages that are loaded in iFrames?
I mean, from the bit I read using meta data for search engine optimization are hardly worth it these days.
Thanks anyhow M. This thing say I give you too many reputations, and must spread the love first. Better stop that before I get redirected to gay sites or something.
(Thank you, thank you)
Yes, setting metadata is still helpful, especially when it comes to Google, the most important search engine out there. In fact, there are even SEO techniques out there that one ought to keep in mind. For example, in your <head> section, you ought to have the title first, and then description and then keywords and then any other meta tags you may have. And google does care about the meta keywords and description, so it's always worth setting it.
