Add Meta tags to Asp.Net Master Page and ASPX Child Content Pages

By: Suresh Dasari May 24, 2015

Introduction:

Here I will explain how to add meta tags in master and child pages in asp.net using c#, vb.net or add meta tags like page title, description, keywords dynamically in asp.net using c#, vb.net or dynamically change page title and description in master page and child content page in asp.net using c#, vb.net.

Description:

In previous articles I explained jQuery crop and upload image with preview in asp.net, jQuery upload multiple files in asp.net using handler, jQuery load more data in repeater on button click in asp.net, jQuery show asp.net exception message in ajax calls, cascading dropdownlist in gridview using asp.net and many articles relating to gridview, asp.net, c#,vb.net and jQuery. Now I will explain how to add metags in master page and child pages in asp.net using c#, vb.net.

Before implement this example first design one table pagetitledescription in your database like as shown below

Column Name	Data Type	Allow Nulls
Pageid	Int(IDENTITY=TRUE)	No
Pagename	varchar(50)	Yes
Pagetitle	varchar(50)	Yes
pagekeywords	varchar(50)	Yes
pagedescription	varchar(250)	Yes

Once we design table in our database that would be like as shown below

Now insert some dummy data in your table to use it in our application. Now open your aspx page and write the code like as shown below

</head>

<body>

<div>

<b>Aspdotnet-Suresh.com Meta Tags Example</b>

</div>

</form>

</body>

</html>

Now add following namespaces in code behind

C# Code

using System;

using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

using System.Data;

using System.Data.SqlClient;

After completion of adding namespaces you need to write the code like as shown below

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

DataTable dt = GetPageDetails("samplepage");

// set page title

if (dt.Rows.Count > 0)

{

this.Page.Title = dt.Rows[0]["pagetitle"].ToString();

//page keywords

HtmlMeta pagekeywords = new HtmlMeta();

pagekeywords.Name = "keywords";

pagekeywords.Content = dt.Rows[0]["pagekeywords"].ToString();

Header.Controls.Add(pagekeywords);

//Page description

HtmlMeta pagedesc = new HtmlMeta();

pagedesc.Name = "Description";

pagedesc.Content = dt.Rows[0]["pagedescription"].ToString();

Header.Controls.Add(pagedesc);

}

private DataTable GetPageDetails(string pagename)

{

DataTable dtresult = new DataTable();

using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=Suresh;Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=MySampleDB"))

{

con.Open();

SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select * from pagetitledescription where pagename=@pagename", con);

cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@pagename",pagename);

SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);

da.Fill(dtresult);

}

return dtresult;

}

VB.NET Code

Imports System.Web.UI.HtmlControls

Imports System.Data

Imports System.Data.SqlClient

Partial Class VBCode

Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Dim dt As DataTable = GetPageDetails("samplepage")

' set page title

If dt.Rows.Count > 0 Then

Me.Page.Title = dt.Rows(0)("pagetitle").ToString()

'page keywords

Dim pagekeywords As New HtmlMeta()

pagekeywords.Name = "keywords"

pagekeywords.Content = dt.Rows(0)("pagekeywords").ToString()

Header.Controls.Add(pagekeywords)

'Page description

Dim pagedesc As New HtmlMeta()

pagedesc.Name = "Description"

pagedesc.Content = dt.Rows(0)("pagedescription").ToString()

Header.Controls.Add(pagedesc)

End If

End Sub

Private Function GetPageDetails(ByVal pagename As String) As DataTable

Dim dtresult As New DataTable()

Using con As New SqlConnection("Data Source=Suresh;Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=MySampleDB")

con.Open()

Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("select * from pagetitledescription where pagename=@pagename", con)

cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@pagename", pagename)

Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd)

da.Fill(dtresult)

End Using

Return dtresult

End Function

End Class
