Creating A Customized Marquee
The MARQUEE tag is used to scroll text across a web page
and is only supported by Microsoft Internet Explorer.
You can change the background color, width, the number of
times your message will scroll and the speed that your
text scrolls, by adding the following attributes within
your MARQUEE tag.
BGCOLOR="#CCCCCC" - background color
LOOP - Determines how many times the text will scroll.
-1 is indefinite and will continuously scroll. You can set
this to whatever you'd like.
SCROLLAMOUNT - Determines the speed your text will scroll.
WIDTH - Determines the width of your marquee.
<MARQUEE bgcolor="#CCCCCC" loop="-1" scrollamount="2"
width="100%">Example Marquee</MARQUEE>

Using META Tags for Search Engine Indexing
Meta tags are used to give detailed instructions, in
regard to a web page, to the Search Engines and browsers.
You can provide the Search Engines with a description of
your web page and the most relevant "keywords" for your
web site by adding the following META tags between the
<HEAD> and </HEAD> tags of your HTML.
<META name="Description" content="Description of your site">
<META name="keywords" content="keywords describing your site">
When selecting your keywords, it is best to list them within
a phrase. Try to concentrate on only a few keyword phrases
throughout your text.
Example:
dog grooming techniques,groomers,tips,pet supplies,animal care,
Try to select keyword phrases that your potential visitor
may type in while at a Search Engine.
The keywords above will cover a wide variety of queries:
dog
dog grooming
dog groomers
grooming techniques
dog grooming techniques
dog groomer techniques
dog grooming tips
dog groomer tips
grooming tips
dog care
dog supplies
animal care
pet care
pet supplies
pet grooming
pet groomers
animal grooming
animal groomers
grooming supplies
dog grooming supplies
pet grooming supplies
Try not to repeat your META keywords more than three times.
To cover the many different ways your potential visitor may
type in their search terms, type your META keywords in a few
different styles.
Example:
<META name="keywords" content="dog grooming techniques,groomers,
tips,pet supplies,animal care,Dog Grooming Techniques,Groomers,
Tips,Pet Supplies,Animal Care,DOG GROOMING TECHNIQUES,GROOMERS,
TIPS,PET SUPPLIES,ANIMAL CARE">

Using META Tags to Redirect
Meta tags are used to give detailed instructions, in
regard to a web page, to the Search Engines and browsers.
You can automatically redirect your visitors to another
web page by adding the following META tag between the
<HEAD> and </HEAD> tags of your HTML.
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh"
CONTENT="4;URL=http://www.yourdomain.com/">
The CONTENT attribute tells the browser to redirect the
visitor to the URL you specify in 4 seconds. This can be
changed to whatever you'd like.
If you move your web site to a new location, this tag
provides a great way to automatically redirect your visitors.

Using META Tags to Prevent Browser Cache
Meta tags are used to give detailed instructions, in
regard to a web page, to the Search Engines and browsers.
When visiting a web site, your browser will cache or make
a copy of the web site for fasting viewing your next visit.
This will prevent your regular visitors from seeing your
new content unless they manually reload their browser.
To prevent this problem, add the following code between
the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags of your HTML.
<META http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">
