Very informative post. I heard about the keywords meta tag not having much importance anymore but I didn’t know that it had none whatsoever for Google.

I think that Yahoo and Bing may still consider them though. They can’t hurt.

The description is all the more important then.

Thanks for coming up with valuable stuff.

I’ve never worried about the keywords meta tag. I think it meant something many years ago but not any more. I certainly don’t pretend that I’m any kind of SEO wiz but I’ve read so much about it that I’ve heard this many times over.

But even with all the reading from all the so called experts I still had a little doubt that this meta tag was completely useless.

No doubts anymore.

This is great info as it’s coming from the best source possible, a Google employee.

Wow, that is something that is mentioned in most SEO books, It is always spoken of as being important, maybe it’s not that important after all.

Excellent find thanks for sharing that information.

All the best,
