Paul:

I am coming at it from a librarian background and modeling it on
the Dublin Core Metadata set. Look at http://www.oclc.org/ and
search on Dublin Core.

"keywords" would be fine. Both should work as long as the search
engine captures the <meta /> tag.

Regards,

Steven C. Perkins

Steve: Could I ask you why you suggest using the meta name
"pagetype"
rather than "keywords" in which the contents would be separated by
commas?
In your suggestion would the crawlers and search engines consider
the
items as individual entries or a single entry? My understanding is
that
keywords will produce better results but I am be in error.

Thanks.

Well, never send a message after only one cup of coffee.

Other corrections:
"This can be in the text of the page . . ."

"I believe it will make finding such pages . . ."

One reader asked for an example of the meta tag:

<meta name="pagetype" content="Genetic Genealogy Test
Results" />

You could add Y DNA or Mt DNA to be more specific.

This would go in the <head><title>Your Page Title</title> <meta
INSERT
HERE /></head>

Otherwise, just put the phrase in the text of the page.

I also endorse the Webring and am a member of it.
