Why are meta tags important?

Meta tags are information that helps to describe a webpage. They represent what materials are available or relevant on a specific page within the website.

This snippet of HTML code, can be added to the head in order to inform search engines that this is a web page about Electronic Testing Equipment with special emphasis on Electron Tubes, so that it can rank higher in search results for those terms.

Meta tags help websites in search engine optimization (SEO) which means they will often show up higher when searched for than those without meta descriptions such as keywords and modified date.
