Joomla is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) for publishing web content. It is built on a model–view–controller web application framework that can be used independently of the CMS.
There are many free Joomla extensions in the Joomla gallery for the betterment of your site. But it is always a challenge to find and combine the right extensions for your Joomla project. On this website you can preview and download my free extensions. I try to create simple, easy to use extensions and keep them up to date. From all free Joomla extensions I have made a great list of it.

10. Tag Meta:
Includes: Component, Plugin
Compatibility: 3
Tag Meta allows to efficiently manage all site’s meta information. With Tag Meta, as example, it is possible to set the tag ‘title’ or the meta tags (e.g. from the most common ‘description’, ‘keywords’, ‘robots’, as well as the recently ‘content rights’ and ‘external reference’) or link ‘canonical’ on any page, just specifying the URL or a part of it. This provides a swiss army knife to improve site positioning in SEO optimization. But Tag Meta also supports regular expressions in the matching rules and this allows to match a group of URLs with a single rule. In this way it is possible to manage metadata from a single control panel.
