name, content (adding info of html document)

<meta name="author" content="gigaSecure">
<meta name="description" content="This is the things etc..">
Copy

name attribute is basically the category of what's in the content

• Benefits of adding author
  Helps let users know who wrote the page,
  -> if you have any questions about the content and you would like to contact them.

• Benefits of adding description
  Increase appearing on higher results on search engines
  What you put in the "description" will also appear in search engines
  Example below:

<meta name="description" 
      content="The MDN Web Docs site provides information about Open Web technologies including HTML, CSS, and APIs for both Web sites and progressive web apps.">
Copy

!! Copy Pasted
Note: Many <meta> features just aren't used any more.
For example, the keyword <meta> element (<meta name="keywords" content="fill, in, your, keywords, here">) — which is supposed to provide keywords for search engines to determine relevance of that page for different search terms — is ignored by search engines, because spammers were just filling the keyword list with hundreds of keywords, biasing results.
