These are ignored by search engines, Google included. They have an historical
significance, but spamming made them futile. Keywords are defined by
scanning your pages and checking density (repeatability) of terms.

Repeat the phrases "Raleigh Swimming Pool Builder" and "North Carolina
Swimming Pool Builder" (or the likes of them) in your page. Bear in mind
that <title> <h[number]>, and font size/weight may have more contribution to
the impact of the terms.
Additionally, get inbound links to your site where the anchor text (that
which is 'clickable') is/contains "Raleigh Swimming Pool Builder" and/or
"North Carolina Swimming Pool Builder".
Good luck,
Roy
