The Meta Tag Construction Kit

This clever tool places proper meta tags in your HTML document.
Search engines use meta tags to help rank your site for relevancy and position.

It is designed to:

Place properly formatted meta tags in your HTML documents
verify the spelling of your description tag so your site will be presentable when visitors find it via a search engine
verify that appropriate values are used in the meta tags to provide the best possible chance to be indexed higher by the search engines.

TagGen 1.1 combines database support, reporting, and wizard style selection in one package to provide you with a complete meta tag creation and implementation solution. TagGen 1.1 was created to help web developers easily control the meta tags within their web documents. TagGen has many advanced features that separate it from the competition.

Database Driven - Borland Database Engine driven with a standard Paradox table type. The BDE has been used for speed and ease of configuration. When we reviewed the database requirements for the system we considered three items: scalability, speed, and reliability. We considered Apollo, DAO, and BDE, but BDE was the winner hands down! The entire BDE configuration is handled by our installation program, you will never have to configure it. With TagGen, your data is being managed by the premier PC database engine! The system saves data based on your selection of:
Domain - (the site to be managed). This is a label to identify the domain to TagGen, and is not used to access the domain via http or ftp.
File Name - The complete name and path of the file to manage.
Keywords - This section keeps track of all keywords entered for a file. Keywords are not saved at the default site level. Please view our FAQ on Keywords and Descriptions. All TagGen keyword fields support a global keyword list you can access at the touch of a button!
Settings - These tags can be saved at a domain level (default) or at the page level. This gives you the flexibility of defining settings that are often repeated across many pages (such as copyright and PICS labels).

Multiple Web Sites Support - Configure and maintain multiple domains. Another feature that separates TagGen from the competition is its ability to support single or multiple domains. TagGen is the ONLY product in its class that does this!

Multiple Page Updating - Update single or more pages at a time. TagGen can allow you to update meta tags on literally thousands of pages at one time. Imagine changing the page expiration date on 100 files one file at a time! The same is true of all of the other settings or PICS Label tags. Think of it; you take a new site under management, you click on a few buttons, select all, add your tags via a simple form and Click on UPDATE HTML FILES! So you just updated 100 files to comply with HTML Standards and you can print a report to show your work and you are done! This can be accomplished in 5-10 minutes, in the past this could take 5-10 hours!
<HEAD> Section Correction – Automatically ensures that your <HEAD> section is formatted properly! Search Engines are particular how they view the data in meta tags/in the <HEAD> section of your HTML, so TagGen automatically takes care of:

<Title> line first followed by PICS Labels, 1 Line keywords and 1 Line Description.
These simple formatting steps can make a great difference in the rating of your site.

Spell Checker – This option ensures that your document and description tag do not include spelling errors. The description tag allows you to present a formatted summary of your site to the search engine user. This is the first impression that they will get, so it is wise to spell check it!

The Spell Checker:

Has a common user interface

Suggests replacements

Has an Auto-correct feature that you can modify by editing the AutoFix.txt file in the application directory

Has a standard Dictionary and a Custom dictionary that accepts user entries

Additional language dictionaries available: British, Dutch, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.

Optionally writes to the Clipboard or updates your HTML files. This flexible program allows you to update your files how you see fit!

LINK Tag Support - One of the most under used tags in the head section is the LINK tag. TagGen provides the two most commonly used LINK tags: HELP and CONTENTS. These are what we recommend that you use. Of course, TagGen will allow you to enter any of the other link tags, too.
Multi-User Support - (Multi User Version Only) Your Enterprise solution for intranets or larger web development companies. This may be one of the most important features of this software. TagGen supports multiple users with full record locking. Users can work in the same domain on different files or on different domains. The Trial version does not support Multi user functionality. The purchased version does and you can purchase as many user licenses as you require. The Professional version ships as a five (5) user version.
Scalable to full Client Server (Two Tiered) – TagGen is available in a Client Server version utilizing INTERBASE. Contact our sales department for more information!
Clipboard Support - Write to the clipboard or let TagGen directly update HTML files. Use the HTML update process you are most comfortable with.
Read your existing Tags - Using the Options page and Keyword Description page, TagGen can read your existing values and automatically load them. This saves a great deal of time when bringing a new site under management.
Updateable Lookups - This is a major feature of TagGen! Lookup tables allow you to pick entries quickly, but sometimes what you want just isn't in the list. All tag values accessible from lookups are update able. When you need a new classification or a new rating type, just enter it! All lookup tables are accessible via the table editor - even keywords! Although we now list over 75 classifications, you can still add your own. If you are developing intranets, you can even change the distribution tag to match your requirements!
Supports Default Site Settings - TagGen allows you to set up default tag settings for a domain and then simply load them to a new page and then customize them! TagGen allows you to update site defaults, distribution list, classification list, search bot text, keyword list and rating text. This is not a small unstable text based database! This system was developed using the award winning Borland Database Engine. TagGen can support up to 255 users and up to 2 billion records per table. TagGen (The Meta Tag Construction Kit), allows you to set up default meta tag settings for a domain, load them to a new page, and then customize them!

You can save defaults for each domain, too - The Defaults/Templates features provide the utmost in flexibility and relief from repetitive tasks. When setting up the first page in a site, simply select ‘Write Defaults’ and TagGen is ready for you to load your work into additional pages as you see fit. You will not have to constantly enter tags like you must with other tools. (TagGen supports all file types that require meta tag info: .ASP, .TAM, and more! This feature does, however, require that the file has a <HEAD> section or you will have to use the copy to the clipboard function to update your files.)

Integrated Text Editor - You asked for it and we gave it to you! TagGen 1.1 has an integrated text editor that can open the active file for immediate editing. This little editor is lightning quick and takes practically no resources! TagGen provides web developers with a solid edge over the competition. TagGen users can update and maintain their web pages quickly and effortlessly.
Preprogrammed Reports - Reports to update customers on web site activities: There are Six (6) preprogrammed reports that come with TagGen. These reports allow you to...

… track site maintenance;

… inform your customer of changes for sign-off before you implement them;

… just to report what changes made; and

… view rating and classifications lookups.

You can even report on all sites or files at once! This special report prints out all sites (domains) managed by the system and notes the files being managed. Use the ‘All Sites Default Settings’ to print out all sites (domains) managed by the system with their ‘default settings’; use the ‘Site Classifications’ report to see all site classification choices; use the ‘Ratings’ report to list all of the current ratings available to choose from. Of course, each of these reports can be printed out or viewed on the screen.
