Description, keywords are the most important. Through Meta tags we can improve the designing of the site and this helps in improving our ranking in search engines. Whenever search engine comes for crawling (checking of site) it look for meta tags and if good meta tags are there the search engine improves the ranking of the site. An seo person has to create the meta tags and added in the site by the web designer.
Creating keywords, writing description, creating title of the every page etc. And after that he gives it to designer to be added in the coding part of the site through ftp.
Every search engine has crawling(checking) time like after 20 days or month at that time it looks to the coding of the site and meta tags and if coding is according to the SE than it rises our ranking or drops also.
