Mine doesn't and in fact it is nowhere to be found on the home page, but I would like it to. How can I correct that?

Meta tags go in between the "opening" and "closing" HEAD tags. Here is an example: <meta name= "description" content="Put your page description here"> Note that not all crawler bots look at this. Google is one big example. _____________________________ Don from TreeTops Ranch, Oregon "I've got a taste for quality and luxury" (in reply to oraclewiz)

The Meta tag is only visible in the code. Pull up one of the sites you have seen that do it, 'View Source' and you should be able to see how they've done it. Probably a Heading or Paragraph with the text typed in. If you can't work it out then come back and post a link for us so we can see what you mean. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.
