    Do SE seperate keywords like:

    'free online shooter games' could stand for all of these'free online, online games, free online games, free shooter games, games online, free shooter' etc...

    Meaning that I don't have to seperate them into seperate keywords?

    Thanks.

    I thought of another question about keywords.
    If I put games as my keyword will that count for both games and game.
    How smart are SE?

    So does that mean I should try to combine my keywords?

    I should use this in my keyword meta tag: free online shooter games

    Instead of this in my keyword meta tag: games, free games, free online games, free shooter games, shooter games

    If it is the second one should I go broad to specific or specific to broad?
