Meta Tags are lines of HTML code embedded into web pages that are used by search engines to store information about your site. These "tags" contain keywords, descriptions, copyright information, site titles and more. They are among the numerous things that the search engines look for, when trying to evaluate a web site.
This is what the description tag looks like:
< meta name="description" content="Description">
Ideally, your description should be no longer than 155 characters (including spaces). However, check the search engine results page (SERP) of choice to confirm this. Some are longer and some are shorter. This is only a rule of thumb, not a definite “best practice” anymore.

Metadata or <meta> tag is data (information) about data.
The <meta> tag provides metadata about the HTML document. Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but will be machine parsable.
Example :
<head>
<meta name="description" content="Free Web tutorials">
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML,CSS,XML,JavaScript">
<meta name="author" content="Ståle Refsnes">
<meta charset="UTF-8">
</head>

HTML Tags are used in website to be crawled and get high ranking in Search Engines. Basically 6 tags of HTML are used in websites and blogs. Meta tags gives information to Search Engine about the website. It consists of website title, description, language, keywords, author and etc..
