The meta tags every page needs
Meta tags live in the head of your HTML and tell browsers and search engines how to handle your page. The essentials are a title, a meta description, the charset, and a viewport tag for mobile. From there, Open Graph and Twitter Card tags control how your links look when shared on social media - the difference between a bare URL and a rich preview with a title, description, and image.
Getting these right once, and consistently, prevents a surprising number of small SEO and social problems: truncated titles, missing share images, and pages accidentally left out of the index.
Meta tags vs. meta keywords
People often confuse meta tags with the old meta keywords tag. They are not the same thing. "Meta tags" is the umbrella term for all the tags in your <head> - title, description, viewport, robots, Open Graph, and Twitter Card. The meta keywords tag specifically was a place to stuff target keywords, and it was abused so heavily that Google has ignored it for well over a decade.
The practical takeaway: do not waste time on a keywords meta tag for Google. Focus on a strong title and description, correct Open Graph and Twitter tags for sharing, and a sensible robots directive - which is exactly what this generator produces.
