Regarding META tags, the last time I checked, Google totally diregarded meta tags. Some (but not all) other search engines still use them, and dmoz.org uses them at the discretion of the editors, and search engines get links directly from dmoz, but due to so many people abusing META tags to get their sites unfairly listed/ranked, Google and others just plain ignore them. Another very, very useful tip is to make sure you use ALT tags on your images with appropriate descriptive content. Search engines DO read those and rank accordingly. bonni
