WE all understand that the importance of keywords has greatly diminished but for the most part it is a "what the heck, might as weel put them in". A couple of questions that I find wide disagreement on and would like to see opinions on.

1. single words only or expression (2 words) allowed?
2. more than 2 word expressions?
3. comma seperated or what?

Well I still put keywords in mainly for Inktomi but also because of the belief that they may get picked up again in future and I may as well have them there.

I comma separate as it's easier to see what I've got. I do use 2 word phrases but never more than that.

1. For me it depends on how deep the page is. Top level pages I target one word. Working down to the money page I use 3 plus as I wan the money page to have tight traffic that converts. By going more generic higher up you hit the one and two word phrases to get a big netfull of semi relevant traffic.

2. Sure do on the bottom level pages.

3. Me, no. However I have never been convinced on the comma VS. no comma debates.

Take care,

Brian
