!-- Comment Tags --

Comment tags are tags that can be added to the HEAD section with meta tags. Go to "view" on your browser tool bar and select "source" to read the comment tags I've added to this page. The proper format (and I've noticed that a lot of people blow this) is a left arrow, an exclamation point, two hyphens, a space, then text, like this: !-- text goes here. It closes after the text with two more hyphens and a right arrow. Inside the arrows you can write comments telling what your site's about; be sure to include keywords. How effective this is, is hard to say. From what I understand the only engine that definitely reads this tag is Hotbot; however, it is likely that the presence of this text may help to reinforce the validity of your tags and page for other robots. Do not overdo it with comment tags. These tags can also be used in the BODY of your page to point out what exists there when a spider can't read it, like a java search box or script. doing this also helps you to locate whatever it is follows the tag in the HTML (don't overdo it with these either).
