Hi,
My sister asked me a similar question a couple of weeks ago. Keywords are
irrelevant and will only affect people who decide to view the page source
or Web sites whose role is to collect this data and provide some public
information about your site (few of these exist). As an alternative, con-
sider having "<b>keyword:</b>", followed by a succinct, comma-separated
description of the content. This /might/ help, but search engines prefer
to judge for themselves nonetheless.
The case where many keywords are stuffed into the meta and projected
through other Web sites could (just /could/) lead to relevance through an-
chor text (or word proximity rather). Crawlers ignore the keyword meta,
which is unreliable as it can be misused. It is often a greedy spam-like
description that contains repetitions and thus poorly reflects on the page
context -- that which is viewable to the reader.
That last analogy is reminiscent of the case where JavaScript redirects
are exploited to create doorway pages -- a false reflection of site con-
tent that is aimed purely at search engined optimisation and good place-
ment in search results.
Hope it helps,
Roy
