In HTML, `meta` tags allow to provide additional metadata for a document, e.g.
page titles and descriptions, additional assets to be loaded, and [Open Graph]

#### on a single page
If you want to set a `meta` tag on a single page, or want to set different
values for different pages, you can use the `page.meta` object inside your
template override, e.g.:
``` html
{% block extrahead %}
{% if page and page.meta and page.meta.robots %}
<meta property="robots" content="{{ page.meta.robots }}" />
{% else %}
<meta property="robots" content="index, follow" />
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
```
You can now use `robots` exactly like [`title`][9] and [`description`][10] to
set values. Note that in this case, the template defines an `else` branch, which
would set a default if none was given.
