As we all know that Meta tag has very important roles in Search engine optimization and if we want to have out site listed with good ranking on search engines then we have to put meta tags. Before some time I have blogged about dynamically creating meta tags in asp.net 2.0/3.5 sites, in this blog post I am going to explain how we can create a meta tag dynamically very easily.

To have meta tag dynamically we have to create a meta tag on server-side. So I have created a method like following.

Important milestone achieved. This is my 400th Blog post

When I started this blog before four Years I was not serious about blogging. I was just started this blog to register domain against my name. After a while I was inspired by great community bloggers like ScottGu,Pinal Dave,Jacob Sebastian and some other friends like Vivek Patel. Then I started blogging seriously but at that time I was not aware of how to blog. I was just writing whatever I like or whatever I have found. I have no idea of syntax highlighting, blogging technique and SEO. Day by day I learned a lot and started working on things and as a Result of it Today I got 400th Blog post on my this blog.

I would like to thanks each and every reader and my fellow community blogger to helping me achieve this. Without them I could not achieve this.

Still I have seen there are lots of exceptional developers who are not writing blog. I would like to recommend that please read my blog post “Why a developer should blog?”. I must say once again that If you are doing great work then you should share it with the community and get their views of what you are doing.

On this occasion I would love to share some thoughts on blogging like following.

1. Do not write blog to increase your blog post or get any recognition . Instead of this write your blog for self pride and community.
   
2. Do no worry about who is going to read this blog. How you can increase your readers instead of that keep writing blogs and one day you will achieve whatever you like to do. Read your blog post once you posted it on your blog and it will give you great joy and satisfaction.
   
3. keep inspired by your fellow community bloggers and try to improve your blogging.
4. If you are technical blogger then Keep your post to give a complete solution of a problem because if readers will not get complete solution then they got frustrated with you.
5. Learn and explore new things and share you experience on you blog.
6. Always be good listener and you will learn a lot.
7. Nobody knows everything. We all are learning everyday something so keep doing mistakes but learn from those mistakes and try to not repeat the same mistakes again.

Statistics of my blog:

On this occasion I would like to share my statistics of blog below are my statistics of blog

Once again I would like to thank the readers and all the fellow bloggers without them it was not possible to achieve this. Keep blogging.. Stay tuned for more..

Dynamically creating Meta Tag from ASP.NET 2.0/1.1

Search Engine optimization is very important to any web site today you can’t get more visitors except search engine optimization.In asp.net site we can also create dynamic meta tags as per our requirement for each page very easily. I will going to show you the two ways of adding meta tags dynamically one for asp.net 2.0 and other for any asp.net version. Lets look first that way and then we will look another way. First you have to add runat=”Server” in your head tag like following.

<head id="Header" runat="server">
<title></title>
<link href="~/Styles/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="HeadContent" runat="server">
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</head>

Then you need to write following code to create metatags dynamically.

protected  void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

HtmlMeta keywords = new HtmlMeta();
keywords.Name = "keywords";
keywords.Content = "DotNetJaps-An asp.net blog";
Header.Controls.Add(keywords);

} 

Now let look at another way of doing this.Here you can to create a static function which will return the string and that string contain the dynamic metatags.

public static string SiteMetaTags()
{
System.Text.StringBuilder strMetaTag =
new System.Text.StringBuilder(string.Empty);
strMetaTag.AppendFormat(@"<meta content='{0}' name='Keywords'/>",
"DotNetJaps-An asp.net blog");
return strMetaTag.ToString();
}

Then we have to call that function from asp.net page html like following.

<head >
<title></title>
<link href="~/Styles/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<%=SiteMetaTags()%>
</head>

That’s it it will be render as met tag in you asp.net page.Hope this will help you..

Page.MetaDescription and Page.MetaKeywords in asp.net 4.0

As i have in my earlier post Search Engine optimization is necessary for every sites otherwise site will not have more users and viewers. For search engine meta tag are very important one Search engine crawler get information from this meta tags. There lots of meta tag but most important meta tag are keyword and description. From keyword meta tag search engine crawler get information about keyword for which they list this site page and from the description tag they will get descriptive information about particular page.

ASP.NET 4.0 introduces support for this. Now you can create your own meta tag keyword and description with the help of Page.MetaDescription and Page.MetaKeywords. It will render as same description and keyword meta tags in simple HTML Page. For example if you write following in your page_load event.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Page.MetaDescription = "This page contains information about asp.net 4.0";
Page.MetaKeywords = "ASP.NET 4.0,Search Engine Optimization";
}

It will render meta tag as following.

<meta name="description" content="This page contains information about asp.net 4.0" />
<meta name="keywords" content="asp.net 4.0, Search Engine Optimization" /> 

So now with asp.net 4.0 you can do your site search engine optimization very easily and you don’t have to write code for that.

Permanent redirection in asp.net 4.0

We all need search engine optimization in our sites. With web 2.0 site its necessary that our site is search engine friendly because if i write this blog but nobody comes to read my blog then what is the worth of it. So for every thing we need to have search engine optimization whether its a blog,site or any thing on web.

For Search Engine Optimization one of the most important thing is the permanent redirection with 301 headers. Now all you say what is 301 headers lets explore this thing in greater details.

301 Header in SEO:

Every dot net programmer does comes along Response.Redirect – It will redirect from one page to another page which causes 302 redirect. For search engine optimization 302 redirection is document is temporary moved from one location to another location so it will keep indexing the other document as well from which we have redirected. In 301 header it will stop the response from older page. So that search engine can index new location permanently.

We can achieve this functionality in asp.net 4.0 directly with permanent redirect method. Like following. It will create 301 headers for search engines/

Response.PermanentRedirect(“http://jalpesh.blogspot.com”);

With the help of this now you can redirect your 302 pages to 301 which will be more search engine friendly then the older one.
