    This may be a dumb question, but im new to all this.

    When publishing content for a website you can enter keywords for each article. How do you apply keywords when using blogger? Do you need to edit the html? Or do you just fill your content on the blog with the keywords your going after? thanks

    Well I am not a pro expert in this field. But the way I am doing I am getting a lot of traffic from the search engines this time.
    About tags: I have learned that we should use approx 40-50 keywords for a single post/ article.

    But if you visit the homepage here==>> http://www.bigcommercestation.com/blog/ you may see a lot of different tags. This is because I have used tag cloud widget. Type "Tag cloud widget" in google to learn more about this widget/plugin.

    While you visit this post http://www.bigcommercestation.com/b...k-from-home-jobs-in-india-without-investment/ you can see about 40-50 tags related to this current post.

    You can visit http://www.bigcommercestation.com/b...-traffic-or-visitors-to-your-website-or-blog/ to know how I am doing with this blog.

    The best strategy has been to put the keyword in the title and then put it at least once in the first paragraph. Through my years of experience I have realized that this allows me to be creative with my writing and at the same time target a specific keyword that relates what I'm promoting.

    I use 7-8 keywords for particular blog Post. I use keywords as tags in blogger and wordpress both. I also use main keyword 2-3 times in my blogpost content.

    Yes to use keywords 2-3 times is better option instead of using a keywords 7-8 times, tag clouds also help in getting keyword search for a post.
