Add meta tags for Google Search to find

[Hellas]

I would like to add some tags so google finds my site easier - how do I do that?

Cheers

Google hasn't used meta tags in years. To my knowledge there isn't a place to add them.

Thanks. Is there anyway to enhance how Google reads my site? For example - there doesn't seem to be an option to remove my forum title 'Welcome.' Google reads that title as part of its description for my site:



I can edit the 'welcome' in admincp but not remove it. What I would like is a way to make it invisible but still readable to google - then I will exchange the 'Welcome' with a descent description of the forums for google.

Making things invisible but readable to Google would be cloaking which would cause a lot of harm to your rankings.

Fair enough. Seeing as I can't yet edit in the CSS through Admin CP - what is the best way to edit the font (size, colour and font style) of this main title Mark?

You can edit the Meta Description for your pages using Site Builder. Edit the Page and Save it. You can fill out the Meta Description in the Save Dialog that appears. However, this won't make Google find your site quicker. It will only be used as a description for the page if there is no text on the page.

To have Google index your site quicker, you need to create a series of Sitemap XML files in the AdminCP under XML Sitemap -> Rebuild Sitemap. This will be stored on your server. The system will provide you with a link that you add to your Google Webmaster Tools account and Google will index the site for you.

You can also request Google to index page(s) on your site in the Webmaster tools by specifying a URL to index and in few or several hours or so it will be completed.
