I am creating meta tags for my website and need to know do
I put them on all pages at my site or just my home/index
page??? Also, does the physical location of the meta tags
matter; top of page, middle, bottom, etc.???
Thank you in advance!!!!

All meta tags go between the <head></head>
tags.

You can have them in all pages. Make sure the keywords tag
matches the content on the page though.

....adding to Jim's comments, they should be in the following order:

Title
Description
Keywords

Yikes! Really? Shoot I've got Title dead last. Should those go before ALL
the other meta things too? As in...

<title>bla bla bla</title>
<META NAME="Description" CONTENT="bla bla bla">
<META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT="bla bla bla">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<META NAME="Author" CONTENT="bla bla bla">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no">
<meta http-equiv="pics-label" content='bla bla bla">
<META NAME="RATING" CONTENT="General">
<META NAME="COPYRIGHT" CONTENT="bla bla bla">
<META NAME="robots" CONTENT="NOINDEX,NOFOLLOW">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="lifeway.css">
<LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="bla bla bla">
