Meta Tags in Website

I have a website, and I need to figure out a few things:

  1. Where to put the meta tag?
  2. How many meta tags do I need?
  3. Can I put all the webpages in 1 meta tag or do I need multiple?

As for my website, there are over 1000 things you can do, so an example would be "John is looking for a poker player." On my website, if you go under board games and click cards, you could add a classify OR if you do a search, you can look for members who play poker/card games. This is one example of thousands of activities.

My question is: do I need to create 1 meta tag for keywords of poker, friend, activity to show up on an SEO, OR can I create 1 meta tag that will hold 1000+ keywords on 1000+ different topics?

My website was created in C#. I'm confused when I google meta tags on youtube and find them written out in notepad as an html.

You should not use Meta tag for keywords !

The Keywords Meta Tag

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, the “keywords” meta tag was a critical element for early search engines. Much like the dinosaurs, this tag is a fossil from ancient search engine times.

The only search engine that looks at the keywords anymore is Microsoft's Bing – and they use it to help detect spam. To avoid hurting your site, your best option is to never add this tag.

Or, if that's too radical for you to stomach, at least make sure you haven't stuffed 300 keywords in the hopes of higher search rankings. It won't work. Sorry.

If you already have keyword meta tags on your website, but they aren't spammy, there's no reason to spend the next week hurriedly taking them out. It's OK to leave them for now – just take them out as you're able, to reduce page weight and load times.

EDIT: Here is meta description and title. If your website is written on C# this is probably located in Site.Master !

<head>
     <title>Not a Meta Tag, but required anyway </title>
     <meta name="description" content="Awesome Description Here">
</head>

1) Meta tags are always in <head> element of page.

2) It depends on what metadata you want to add to your page.

3) You will need 1 <meta> tag for each meta type. So 1 tag will be enough for your keywords.

You can find more about meta tag on W3Schools.
