Making your website come up in a search engine?

How do I do it?

[princess]

I know about meta tags, but I don't think I understand how to use them...is there a way to manipulate the meta tags to make the website come up in the first page of the search? I read somewhere that the content of the webpage also affects this. Can someone please explain this to me?

That's a pretty general question. Sounds like you need to do some homework. There is a great deal of info on many sites (try the link top right) about basic search engine promotion.
