    Google will attempt to identify the keywords on your website. So you can mention your keywords in the content with relevancy. Tagging with keywords is generally done by seo people. I guess it is not a problem.

    Keyword Anchor text in links can be a big search ranking aid.

    Two classic examples pf the effectiveness of using keyword anchor text, are:

    The #1 ranked pages for "Click Here" are download pages for Adobe readers, the keyword is used on countless sites download links.

    And the Google Bomb campaign by bloggers to made the Bush white house rank 1st for "Miserable Failure". Both cases involved no participation of the site receiving the ranking, they don't even have those keywords on the target pages.

    In my opinion you should not tag like that. Tags should be better used as another level of categorization, something like subcategory.

    why? Because with adding so many tags on each post you will force google to index thousands of pages without quality content. So, you will get indexed pages for all the tags like: Galaxy S 2 release date,Galaxy S 2 Specs, Samsung Galaxy S 2 features.... Do you need a page with duplicated content for each of that keywords - NO!

    In your case i would choose maybe one tag "samsung galaxy" or "samsung galaxy s2"... that way, you will have a general samsung category on your blog and if someone needs articles on "galaxy" they will be all grouped under that tag.

    So, dont use so many tags. Thousands of indexed pages without quality content - RUBBISH website!

    Visitors usually search like this - Galaxy S 2 Specs, Galaxy S 2 features, Galaxy S 2 review, Galaxy S 2 release date, Galaxy S 2 Price..

    We could not place above keyword directly in the posts ,, it wont be a good readable post.

    The tags for a blog are the few words that best describe what your blog post is about. Ideally there are 5-10 keywords that specifically bind into your post.
