Specific Meta Tags For Blog Post For Search Engines

I am wondering what kind of tags can be used in a web page of a blog post to give search bots more clue about what they are looking at.

The ones that I know is as follows :

Also rel="canonical" link as follows :

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.example.com/product.php?item=swedish-fish"/>

Is there any others?

The meta keywords tag has no SEO value of any kind and can be ignored.

The meta description tag does not affect rankings but may be used by Google as the snippet below a page's listing in the search results.

The rel="canonical" tag is used to signify the preferred URL when content can be found using more then one URL.

The robots meta tag can be used to tell search engines not to index certain content or follow links on a page.

First off, meta description and content tags are no longer used by the major search engines for the purposes of any kind of page/site ranking. However, I still include them because they will probably end up being used for other purposes.

What is more important is your choice of blog post title - I usually put a lot of work into this one thing alone. Next, try and include the blog post title in the URL. Finally, use social media links for all their worth! Quality links back to your blog will reap the most benefit SEO-wise :)

Friendly URLs always help and are included when using BlogEngine.

UPDATE:

To "canonicalize" your URLs, you can use ASP.NET routing or do it like this:

For Google Panda title is very important. Keywords are not very important but you can use them.

Title, Description and Tags.
