Meta-Keywords

Using meta keywords is not as effective as it used to be, if at all. It still does not hurt to edit this and put keywords in there because regardless of what some SEO’s think, using the meta keywords tag does help you a little.

Let’s go back in time a bit shall we? Optimizing your meta keywords tag used to play a huge role in ranking within search engines. People started using this to their advantage and manipulating the search engine crawlers so that they could get top rankings for certain keywords. They did this by stuff their meta tag with keywords and tons of duplicates. From this being abuse since then, Google has changed their algorithm when it comes to this and now it is no longer as effective. If you get caught stuffing keywords, your site will be penalized or banned.

Now when using your meta keywords, the limit of keywords that you should is in it is 30 words(each key phrase before the comma is considered a word(s) ).
