Adding Meta Data to Website

Hey blind-eddie thanks for the info.

Yes...I do have key words entered in that area of the Admin CP. But was hoping to learn how to do it by adding the info to the proper file/template of vBulletin (or any other files for the site). This vBulletin Admin cp input area I think only allows individual words...I was hoping to also have some sort of meta-statement for my site. As with all of us...trying to optimize SEO as much as possible.

Add each meta tag in a new line after the one shown above, just before the closing ';

Thanks iA1. I was mostly hoping to place some meta keywords somewhere...and maybe some sort fo meta statement so that my site shows up better in search engine results (SEO).

If I can do this with the code you provided (thanks very much)...where exactly do I enter the meta info in the code (please pardon my newness to this)?

Maybe it would be easier if I provide a simple example. If I wanted to do the following for my site in terms of meta info:

- Meta statement = Discuss fast red cars with big engines.
- Meta words = fast, red, cars, big, engines

How would the completed code below look within the code provided above?:

    $template_hook['headinclude_javascript'] .= '
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
';

Thanks very much.

p.s. Looks like the vBulletin quote system isn't showing the "code wrapping" very well.
