    Why would you want to do that? When search engines index your page they won't see those keywords

    If you search for blue widgets on google and the page you get to has the exact search term next to an affiliate link or above some adsense it will improve conversions/clicks.

    There's a script on phpclasses taht does exactly what you want

    there is a global var in php called $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] that (if the browser and client's network supports it) will give you the url of the page that had the link to your site.

    If it was a search engine the the results page usually has the query string in the url, eg http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=apple&meta=

    The search term here is 'apple'.

    This line of thinking is can be very powerful VEO and conversion path optimisation

    I was thinking of looking at the referer to see what their search terms were - and go ahead and highlight those terms on my pages. There would be a "remove highlighting" link in this case. I already have most of the script done for this - if anybody is interested...

    I can now see the value of adapting keywords for some pages --- if the code is written with some built-in smarts that use words based on some fairly deep lookups (avoid words, or oversaturated keywords).

    The code is now complete - and I have it implemented first in our "program listings" page (which could be site search results, category listings, company listings, etc.). When the refer URL contains search parameters such as "q=love+in+all+the+wrong+places" or "p=waterfall+software+download+screensaver", I now highlight those words.

    The results are something greater than I had imagined. Now, it is very easy for users to see what they were looking for as soon as they see the various highlighted words.

    [following paragraph edited -- direct link to my page removed because the highlighting didn't appear with that referrer .... need to go from Google search page to my web to see it work]
    It is a little bit hard to explain or understand the impact without clicking on the search result from Google. Here is the Google Search for 2x applications server boost system performance encryption - and the link to the 3rd search result: "Servers - Other Server Applications" at BetterWindowsSoftware.com leads to my webpage with highlighting.
