I love how she thumbs downed all of our responses because she asked a stupid ass question. LOL. I bet you she works for Top Rank...lol. I kid! I kid!

Ugh. Glad you cleared it up. Your demeanor comes off a bit cross, however. "please dont say obvious stuff." --? What does that even mean? I was asking what you meant in my original post. I'm still unsure as to where I am right now.
In any case, the answer to your question is: No, it's pointless. Delete it and move on.
I doubt it hurts (maybe could be considered cloaking but most likely not, right?) but it certainly doesn't help so why have it?
Stick to your title tag and get on with it. There's a reason web developers and SEO minds alike are forgetting this meta tag even exists.
In the future, if we don't know what tag you are talking about we will probably just ask for clarity like I did here this time. The best way to avoid that is to make it clear. A lot of people mistakenly refer to the Title tag as the META TITLE so it can get confusing. Thanks and good luck!

There is almost nothing more important to your onsite SEO than properly optimized title tags. Like seriously...seriously seriously. Cringe.
While you are at it, after you remove your title tags, make sure to add to everyone of your pages. Please don't...I'm kidding.
Please tell me you are joking.

No I am pretty sure Vale meant and Yes Jesse is right, its one of the most important things you can have so yes its very important

The title tag is quite possibly the single most useful piece of on-page optimization you can do... Am I misunderstanding this question?

Meta no index crawler warnings
I've decided that the duplicate content issues on my site weren't worth the effort from the amount of traffic the archive pages on my WordPress site received no I decided to no-index them using Yoast. Now I have 60 meta no-index crawler warnings. Should I just ignore these? It seems I get warnings, either way, I use the site. Does anyone have advice on how to move on with this?

Missing Meta Description in Pop Up Image Gallery URL
Hi there, Moz has reported that I have a lot of missing meta description in the Pop Up Image Gallery. There are over 150 of these that are missing. The issue is that in our CMS I cannot add meta description to images. I am also not entirely sure why the images I am loading up are generating their own URL like the one below. Possibly that is why Moz is saying it needs a meta description when it is only an image?. An example of the link that has missing meta description that I can't add would be something like this: http://www.domianhere.com/products/PopUpImageGallery/93/1?iframe=true When clicking these links it is purely an image with no text. So basically I am asking how do you add a meta description to a Pop Up image Gallery photo URL and/or possibly why would an image create a custom URL so I have to put in a Meta Description? Hopefully that makes sense, thank you in advance for your help - much appreciated!

Keywords in front of the title element and on page keyword optimization
After running one of my landing pages through the SEOmoz on-page keyword optimization tool, I see that my keywords are 13 characters from the front of the title. My page is already receiving an A letter grade. The 13 characters in front of my keyword phrase are not vital, but they related to the keyword phrase. Is it that important that I drop the related word, in order to get my keyword phrase to start at the front?
