    As specified by W3C the <meta>tag can only be located in the <head> part of your HTML so you can’t use these tags for your tabs. However, you could use Sitemaps
    could be a good solution for you. According to the site,

    Sitemap 0.90 is offered under the terms of the Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons License and has wide adoption, including support from Google, Yahoo!, and Microsoft.

    You can generate the sitemap of your site with this site in XML, add the tabs manually, and then submit it to the different search engines directly or add it in your robots.txt file as follows:

    Sitemap: http://example.com/sitemap_location.xml

    You could also use microdata, as specified in this W3C Specification. According to the spec:

    When a string value is a URLs, it is expressed using the a element and
    its href attribute, the img element and its src attribute, or other
    elements that link to or embed external resources.

    So even if your URL contains a fragment (the # part), the different search engines should point to the correct tab. For example, Google adds a “jump to” link. See this old blog post.
