    Does Google, Yahoo, and Bing have a limit to keywords you suppose to have?

    No, I mean how many keywords in a meta tag you could have. Your Limit. Not, what is your limit for Optimizing it.

    In my latest project that is still in development I have chosen 21 keywords that are searched regularly, some of them up to 450,000 times a month globally. Would you recommend that I myself minimize these and narrow it down to say 10? Plus could anyone explain the effect of only have a small number of keywords apposed to 21? Any help would be greatly appreciated. If this draws away attention from Sir Rusty's actual question i do apologize and I'm more then happy to ask it in my own thread. :)

    You could easily have zero. Meta Keywords doesn't matter. Google doesn't even read it. Focus your efforts on something that has a real value.

    One of the main quotes of this tutorial is:
    And it was written 3 years ago. At this time META Keywords is 100% useless. Stop promoting it.

    I would recommend you stick to optimizing for no more than 2-3 keywords at once. I've had better experiences getting #1 ranking this way then bombarding the list beyond this number

    I have heard this would be called Keyword stuffing and is at times looked upon by the big G as infractions of trying to manipulate the SERP and might get you either the de indexed or very least supplemental index often referred to as the Google Slap.
    However sometimes people exaggerate and you often simply wont know until you know.

    The approach is rather simple. You can't put all of your target keyword into title, you can't have all of them in the anchor text of inbound links, etc etc etc. Well, technically you can, but would it not be better to focus your efforts on just the limited number of keywords instead of trying to cover all and every keyword with a single page and get an average result.

    If you can be average in 20 keywords or perfect in 7 of them - what would you prefer?

    No, keyword stuffing is when you write like this:
    Keyword stuffing, stuffing keyword, good keyword with stuffing, stuff with keywords and so on - that is excessively use some keyword all over the text. That's nothing to do with the topic.

    2-3 keywords per page is suggested.

    Yes at the minute meta keywords are considered useless - ut in SEO that does not mean that they might not come back in!!!!

    I like to include them just in case.

    The Meta Description seemed to lose a lot of weight last year and now everyone is blogging about how important it is now and that the new (google) algos are considering the information within the meta desc a lot more than they did!
