Keywords for search in metatags are OUT!
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byYeah -- finally Google is ranking by content -- content is king!
jeffwend says:
Content is king, but title tags are still pretty darn important. Meta description may bring in some clicks if it is more compelling than a result that is right next to it and Meta keywords are not worth a whole lot of anything.
Posted October 01, 2009
JaguarJulie says:
I know that this has got to be a big surprise to some search engine optimists out there that talk about the importance of keywords in search; and the proper choice of keywords for tags! Quality content has risen to the top like cream!

Good grief -- it's a mistake I say!

- Well Susie! Thanks for dropping by -- I'm not usually responding to my guestbook comments like I should be -- so I will try to get better about this. FYI the links voting modules are not meant for adding additional links -- but for well voting on which lens YOU think can be attributed to ALL the keywords search results. Some surprises on these. There is a module to add your own 'interesting' keywords searched from your dashboard stats. PEACE!

What Wikipedia Has to Say About Keywords!
It's absolutely riveting I say!
Keywords are the words that are used to reveal the internal structure of an author's reasoning. While they are used primarily for rhetoric, they are also used in a strictly grammatical sense for structural composition, reasoning, and comprehension. Indeed, they are an essential part of any language.
There are many different types of keyword categories including: Conclusion, Continuation, Contrast, Emphasis, Evidence, Illustration and Sequence. Each category serves its own function, as do the keywords inside of a given category.
Helpful Tip: Use site: on Google Search
