Adding metatags
-
I want to add metatags to my site. I do have custom design, but it’s css and won’t seem to let me see the code so I know where to insert it. I think I’m supposed to do it differently because it’s CSS, but I don’t know how.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I’m not sure what kinds of meta tags you were interested in, but you might find this post about setting up webmaster tools meta tags helpful:

This is a multi-user blogging platform. Our blogs share a common architecture. We bloggers cannot access metadata. http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2013/03/22/seo-on-wordpress-com/
That being said it’s of interest to note meta titles, meta descriptions and keyword metatags are not required for SEO purposes and Matt Cutts of Google has said that as far back as 2009. Search engines are focused on keywords in your content. What is important is keywords found in your content. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/03/01/revisiting-keywords-and-tags/
To verify blog ownership of a WordPress.com blog with the major search engines you must use this process > http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/ Note also that WordPress.com automatically supplies sitemaps for our blogs to search engines – we do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/#xml-sitemaps-for-search-engines
WordPress.com SEO is very good. If you had two identical sites, one hosted here and one self-hosted using that same plugin, the site hosted here would have better SEO than the self-hosted site. WordPress.com has huge SEO and you get the benefit of that by having your site as a “subdomain” here.
