I have added meta tags to my web page however when I searched for it I got 0 results. I searched using Alta Vista (which I know uses meta tags). Here are my tags <meta NAME="DESCRIPTION" CONTENT="Download games, get goodies for the bob game engine, and view information on our games"> <meta NAME="KEYWORDS" CONTENT="ivanickgames games game programming shareware shooting gallery asteroid attack"> I searched for ivanickgames but I got zero results. I have ivanickgames included in my keywords meta tag so that is why I am confused. Visit http://members.xoom.com/ivanickgames

You always have to register. Look for an add URL section. The meta tags are used by the search engine when it displays information about the site. With the thousands of sites that are built every day, it would be impossible for a search engine to just no about them all.
