Metadata is data (information) about data.

The tag provides metadata about the HTML document. Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but will be machine parsable.

Meta elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata.

The tag always goes inside the element.

The metadata can be used by browsers (how to display content or reload page), search engines (keywords), or other web services.

meta tag in HTML.

In search engine optimization, two kinds of tags are important on your web site: meta tags and HTML tags. Technically, meta tags are HTML tags, they just appear in very specific places. The two most important meta tags are the keyword tag and the description tag.
