Also, meta tags are much less important to search engines these days:
Some simply ignore them. Two suggestions:
1. Try to have relevant text (such as contained in your meta tags)
appear in the actual text of the page(s)
2. Register with Google and use Google sitemaps and include a sitemap
file on your server
3. Getting other sites to include links to your page(s) can also boost
your ranking
