Search Engines Usage

Although not many search engines look specifically for the Copyright META tag, it clearly specifies the terms of ownership or licensing arrangements directly in the headers of your webpage. Generally, search engines do not read and/or store this information.

Recommended Usage: Optional - Use if you want to indicate your work is copyrighted
