   Looks like a good job as usual! I’d use it right now but I’ve got UTW so hacked to pieces at the moment in trying to isolate where I’m going wrong with “+” signs as spaces I don’t dare touch anything even remotely regarding tags until I finish and clean up the mess, haha.

   I have a couple of questions:

   Is this likely to affect performance in any significant way? I would imagine not as it’s only showing informaton which would normally be visible on the page, but I just thought I’d ask.

   Also, is there any way that the plugin could populate the Wordpress keywords field when a post is published? I’m using the Related Posts plugin, which I believe uses the keywords field to infer relations between posts. AFAIK, UTW doens’t automatically populate the keywords field, but it strikes me that you’ve already done most of the work here - making Tags In The Head populate the keyword field could be quite straightforward.

   Of course, that might not fit with the concept 100%.

   Regardless of all that: Great plugin! I’ve just installed and configured it in no time at all, and hopefully my site is now a bit more search engine friendly. So thanks for that

   Dan,

   Thanks for your comments and questions. I hope I can answer a few:

   Is this likely to affect performance in any significant way?

   Every plugin that ‘filters’ in some way will effect the performance of your blog. But how much…. I would venture not very much at all. Here is one method of checking:

   Many themes have the following code shoved in the footer queries. seconds. All it does is report the number of queries made and the time it took to generate the page. I checked my own site and here are the numbers for the front (home) page.

   With Tags in the Head Activated: 58 queries @ 0.338 seconds
   Without Tags in the Head Activated: 51 queries @ 0.311 seconds

   Clearly, everyone has a different setup and I have no way of controlling the load on the server at the time so we will just have assume that all that is moot.
   So the long and short of it is yes, this plugin will effect performance, but by only a very trivial amount.

   The related posts plugin creates a custom field in the wp db, so it is entirely possible to suck the information out of the DB on a post by post basis to populate the meta field. To do so would involve, 1. Sucking the info out, 2. Formatting it into a comma separated list, 3. Output. I’m still learning php, and I won’t add any new features into tags in the head until a full numbered version is released. Perhaps after that, if there is enough interest, I’ll figure out how to do it….

   But your question has intrigued me! I’ll ponder…

   Cheers.

    Wow, there’s an official keyword field in WP? I’m guessing it wasn’t intended for tagging, was it?

    Which Related Posts plugin are you guys talking about? (I get so confused with all the plugins that can do this stuff) I know UTW also has related tag and related post functionality which might be helpful (since you’re already tapping that source) but the logic is very simplistic.

    In related news I finally got UTW to spit out rel-tag compliant tag links to my own site’s tag pages (rather than having to link to technorati). Unfortunately I had to take out the nifty union and intersection functionality it has and I’ve probably broken some other stuff as well… now I just need to clean it up and fix whatever I broke which seems a lot easier in my mind than it likely will be.

    The keywords thing is something I’m kicking around myself. Now I’m using tags it strikes me that the best way to display related posts on my own site is to use those tags, rather than the existing related posts plugin.

    @Ja - I’m not 100% certain that Wordpress has its own keyword field, but that’s what I heard (specifically in relation to the related posts plugin). The plugin in question can be found at http://www.w-a-s-a-b-i.com.

    Hey Steven,

    The plugin seems to be working fine on each individual post page, it’s just the homepage that isn’t coming up with keywords for some reason. Did you set the catch-all info as described:

    4. UTW doesn’t deal with pages very well (although JKW does), so set the catchall keywords appropriately for every page that is NOT a post, the homepage, an archive page, or a 404 page. This pretty much leaves only pages (unless you have other plugins installed that do stuff);

    Maybe it’s getting it mixed up with a static page because of the way the theme is built or having some other problem due to content, but that’s what I’d look at first.

    Honestly I don’t really know what would be going wrong in terms of the coding since I use my own custom version of UTW but I’m sure the author can help you out here if my suggestion doesn’t pan out.

    Good luck man…

    Hi Steven,

    The only way to get that error message is if you are trying to use a keyword source that you don’t actually have installed. Based on the information available at your site, it looks like you are using Ultimate Tag Warrior. In your ‘Tags in the Head’ options pannel, under ‘Keyword Generation’ what does the text say for you (it changes depending on which plugins you have)? Does the radio select option for Ultimate Tag Warrior show the word “Available” in green?

    Make sure you have selected UTW, and then set the meta description for your home page (its not set yet), then hit submit. See if you still have the error.

    I wonder how do you guy overcome this? My second blog is talk about smart consumer info, but it kept displaying blog ads in my adsense column, not related ads.

    Is JKW work as with this?? Pls advise

    Hi Steven

    Tags in the Head helps with search engine rankings, it may also help with adsense… but I don’t know for sure. Adsense ads are served up in a mysterious ways. While meta keywords may factor in, the most important thing seems to be the text surrounding the ad. Next to that, you can use section targeting to help serve the ads you want. See google adesense help center for details.

    That all said, google does a pretty good job of placing the right ads beside relevant content. If you want ads to about a certain topic, then maybe you need to write more about that topic?

    I have no doubt on the way how adsense work on normal website with HTML code… but come to blog, I need to figure out which part of the blog will give google to display which ads…

    This is my question actaully. Let me give you example, I have a consumer site talk about consumer tips, like business loan, getting credit ratings…. but the adsense came out is blog, blog and blog.

    I am trying to dignose which part of my setting is wrong. That’s why my question means previously. Is it in the tag in the head? or is meta keywords? but I do put in my keyword on the website.. but still came out unrealted ads..

    Hope this can make u understand better my problem…I am also looking at Jerome plugin user, whether has this issue or not.

    17 Jun 06

    [...] Today, however, i stumbled across i solution by MaxPower.ca, called Tags In The Head, which automatically includes an optimized version of your META Description and Keywords tags. Now, this is something worth implementing. Whenever viewing a particular post or Wordpress created page (which, lets face it are the bread and butter of our search engine referrals), META tags are contextually optimized to coincide with the content actually featured within the post content. For example, with those implementing tagging, the META Keyword content tag is filled with a keyword seperated list of the posted corresponding tags for that particular post. This is a vast improvement on the current solution, which assumes that the META tag is not neccessary. However, whilst this is an appropriate solution, it would be nice to see some tighter control on this issue. Rather than just automatically inserting tags for a specific post, the introduction of a set of global keywords that where included on every page would be a nice inclusion to help reinforce the general theme of a blog.

    Excellent plugin. However there are essentially two suggestions i would like to make for a future edition. Firstly, it would be nice for when the META Description tag is extracting the excerpt which hasn’t been individually customized to the remove the [...] piece at the end. This is really unneccessary, and only really wastes the inclusion of unneccessary junk tags.

    Secondly, it would be nice for some tighter control over what the META Keywords tag actually displays. Rather than just tags from the corresponding post, it would be nice to see the inclusion of the post name, the post category, the post author, and the website name all options which could be included by the user editing a sort of “syntax” like so;

    Enter your META Keywords tag syntax:
    %PostName%, %PostTags%, %PostCategory%, %PostAuthor%, %BlogName%

    This way you are helping to reinforce the more general search terms which you are wanting to rank highly for. Also, this solution will lead to a much creater customization.

Basically, when you are implementing META tags you are basically guiding search engines as to what the specific page is about. Thus it is usually a good idea to have a conditional META tag formatting for different pages on your Wordpress installations.

    Timw,

    I am not an expert programmer so there maybe is a better way of doing things. The apostrophe to / happens in order to protect your blog from user (you) input. Quotes and apostrophe’s are special characters in PHP, so in order to be able accept apostrophes and quotes I used a function to ‘clean’ your input so that the PHP wouldn’t break.

    In short, it happens for a reason, and its a good thing. If I find another way to protect everyone from misc apostrophe’s I’ll gladly use it, but at this point I don’t know of any.

    Cheers!

    could the plugin be modified to recognize there is only html code in the excerpt and not display it as description? here is an example of my posts: http://pacura.ru/2006/07/13/kouangsy-kuang-si-waterfall-area-4/

    [...] Now for some better news. I recently found a really neat plugin that will put meta description and keywords tags in your header for your blog. This is real easy to use and works with either the Jeromes Keywords plugin or the Ultimate Tag Warrior Plugin. I’m using it with the Jeromes keywords plugin and it works great. What you will need to do is remove this: < meta name=”keywords” content=”” / > from your header file and be sure you have this: < ?php wp_head(); ? > in the file. You can download the plugin at Tags in Head After you upload the folder to your plugin directory, activate it and you will see a new link under your Options menu called Tags in Head. Go there and set your default keywords and description and that’s it your good to go. As long as you a re using the jeromes keyword or Ultimate tag warrior plugins it will pull the keywords you list from each post and the first paragraph or summary text for the description. For this blog I used ‘wordpress,updates,wp-revealed’ for my default keywords and ‘a wp-revealed newsletter’ for my default description. I also set the number of characters for the excerpt to 100.

    Here’s an interesting problem for you. Because of the weird way that WordPress handles apostrophies, I recode them all as “&-#-3-9-;” (without the hyphens) to prevent them from becoming right-single-quotes. That’s fine for my blog, but, unfortunately, it does really horrible things to the META description and invalidates the pages. Unless you have a better solution, mine was simply to override all of the descriptions back to a single static one. That means that I’m losing part of the SEO benefit of the plugin. Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW, thanks for the plugin.

Though meta descriptions still have a level of importance to SE robots, sadly, the meta keyword tag went the way of the dodo back in 2000.

    Hi Jim,

    Thanks for your comment. I’ve read that article before and it might be true, or it might not. What I do know is that “SEO” is probably one of the most competitive keywords out there, so when I see the majority of the top sites that compete on that term using meta keywords I know that many people still believe in their value. Even the website you link to seems to use them in some limited capacity.

    This plugin makes it really easy to include them in your pages doing nothing more than the things authors already do. The real question you bring up is whether including meta keywords on your website hurts your SERP rankings — the answer is a definitive no! Keywords do no bad, and probably do good.

    Not all SEO is about Google. It’s also about making your site searchable by others. There are still search engines, aggregators, directories, and such out there that look for the keywords listed in page META tags. Why drop them for something that certainly doesn’t hurt my standings in Google just because they don’t use that one metric? Google will almost certainly count the backlink that I may get from one of those other sites that was able to find and include me because I had the keywords listed that they were looking for.

    I didn’t want to delete or comment out the description, so that it shows in searches, and I didn’t exactly “wrap” it in the php statement you gave.

    David,

    <meta name=”description” content=”<?php bloginfo(’description’); ?>” />

    That line should probably be deleted in your blog template if you want to use Tags in the Head to manage your descriptions. With the default setup, there is one description for every single page in your wordpress install. This isn’t the best thing because (at least on this site) every page is different. Tags in the Head creates a different description for every page so there is no need to keep the original around.

    That said, here is the code for commenting it out:

    
<!-- <meta name="description" content="<?php // bloginfo('description'); ?>" /> -->

    I think that will work, I haven't tested it. Let me know how it goes.

    Just want to say what I have seen thus far looks great and I appreciate the time you have put in.

    I do have a question as I am going to be using UTW on WP2.1 and I have also looked a t a plug in called SEO Title Tag. Would this be considered a alternative/comptetive plug in that tries to achieve similar results?

    I just want to make sure I don’t put two plugins into play that will either duplicate efforts or cause problems with one another.

    Thank you again for your time and I look forward to your reply!

    When you say you use both of them do you mean you use BOTH “Tags in the Head” AND “SEO Title Tag”???

101. Transpiduum. Bezeichnung. Was heißt Transpiduum?
     31 Dec 08
     4:47 am

     Die Bezeichnung der Künstlergruppe Transpiduum setzt sich aus den Wörtern Transparenz und Individuum zusammen. Damit sind gleichfalls die Schwerpunkte der künstlerischen Auseinandersetzung mit dem Internet gesetzt. Wie transparent ist ein Individuum allein über die Darstellung von Daten im digitalen Öffentlichkeitsraum und wie viel interpretieren wir als Betrachter in dieses Individuum? Dadurch, dass alle Einträge der erdachten Individuen im Internet gespeichert und somit dokumentiert sind, können sie wie eine Geschichte verfolgt werden. Des Weiteren werden diese Geschichten immer von den Kommentatoren beeinflusst und dadurch entsteht eine ungewollte Interaktivität. Eine Einflussnahme des Publikums auf den hauptsächlichen Akteur. Für die Künstlergruppe steht daher auch das Verhalten der Kommentatoren im Mittelpunkt und macht den Leser gleichzeitig zum Teil der künstlerischen Arbeit. Da die hauptsächlichen Informationen über Texte erfahren werden, ist diese künstlerische Arbeit auch als literarisches Werk zu verstehen.
