Should work good for your Meta tags.

This is all I have, I don't even know what some META tags do ))))

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Language" CONTENT="en-us">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; win-1251">
<META NAME="title" CONTENT="DUI / DWI Info - Process Your Drunk Driving Offense Record The Right Way!">

Go with either of the above - it looks to me as if you just have things in the wrong order.

All you really need is:
most important meta:
<meta name="description" content="Short description w/keywords">

Nice to have, but not many SEs use it:
<meta name="keywords" content="keyword1,keyword2,keyword3....">

Not really necesarry, but..... :
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">

OK, thanks guys! :D

What do these tags do??

Thanks!

first one tells the spider that it can crawl all content.
second tells the spider when to return and how often.
third tells the spider the type of site I believe.

I think thats pretty much spot on!

It should be "robots", not "robot"...

And the "return-after" and "rating" doesn't really do much more than just taking up space, since most spiders/SEs ignores them anyway...

So, I need to change it to 'robots'?

Yes..

<meta name="robots" content="follow,index">
It's not really needed, since that's the default settings for most spiders, but it doesn't hurt to add it either..

Thanks, ill edit it now! :tu:

Thanks everyone for your help!

Great info guys... thanks! :tu:

So, what do these ones mean? Are they important??

<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no">
<meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="true">
<meta name="resource-type" content="document">
<meta name="distribution" content="global">

Is there value in putting typos in the meta keyword section??

Thanks again!

Lyte

Very few SEs pays any attention to the keywords meta tag.
But it doesn't hurt to put typos in there since they may put some (tiny) weight on them..
