Google ignores keyword metatags completely – official
Google webmaster blog today –
“Our web search (the well-known search at Google.com that hundreds of millions of people use each day) disregards keyword metatags completely. They simply don’t have any effect in our search ranking at present.” – Google’s Matt Cutts.
Although google hasn’t used or has ignored stated keyword metatags for years that doesn’t mean that they are useless. There are still search engines out there that still utilise them.
