Google and the majority of the search engines have stopped using Meta tags as indexing objects.
<meta name="robots" content="all">
<meta name="revisit-after" content="15 days">

That process has been replaced by a text file inserted in the root directory of the web site called "robots.txt".

User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin/
Disallow: /brad/
Disallow: /familytrip.html

The first line tells the search engine bot that it is welcome to index the site.
You then list any folder or file that you do not want indexed.
