## Create Custom Meta Tags
Use custom meta tags to store data that you need in javascript, instead of hard-coding that data into your javascript. I store my Google Analytics code in meta tags. Here's some examples:
``` html
<meta name =" google-analytics" content =" 1-AHFKALJ"
<meta name =" disqus" content =" abcdefg"
<meta name =" uservoice" content =" asdfasdf"
<meta name =" mixpanel" content =" asdfasdf"
```
