NEW B Help (Meta tags)

I have been submitting my URL www.xxx.com to free search engines such as yahoo and google so the site can be crawled by other search engines. If you submit just the URL you can not pick up any result as their is no meta tags on that root default.asp page as it is just redirected to the another folder. e.g http://www.xxx.com/folder/index.asp this is the final page contains the meta tags. In total thier are two redirect pages.

Which search engine doesn’t recognise redirect pages does that include google or overture? If so how can I overcome this issue?

I tried meta analyser here that seem to pick up my tags and redirect pages http://www.seomasters.com/meta-tag-analyzer/

But when I use this link http://www.seochat.com/seo-tools/meta-analyzer it come out with an error say ‘object moved’


Could some please give me any advice?

Thanks

Redirections are a bad thing for SEO..... and you shouldnt concentrate on meta tags

The whole point of using mete tags is for SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMISATION. if I shouldn't concentrate on that what should I concentrate on?

Read the SEO for Newbies link in my signature. You have a lot of studying to do.

thanks for the links i will be upstuding all night for the next few days or week.

Hi again,
I've just had a brain storm but see if you can understand this!
I will be submitting my ecommerce site to overture site match which is a standard package, no ppc and others.
The page I will be submitting is the home page which redirects to another page and I also got a cool tool that converts my ASP code in to HTML. Now this HTML page could using a 301 redirect page back to the defualt page as the HTML pickup everything basically but the pages a poorly created.
As overture allows you to submit 3 URL's would the 301 page direct work back form the HTML page towords all my redirect pages?


Thanks

ensure you get lots of keyord rich anchor texts for your incoming links.
