Meta keywords for home page

    Hey guys I have a quick couple questions:

    1. I know that the keyword meta tag is pretty much obsolete but it won't hurt to have right, unless you have too many keywords?

    2. How can I put the keyword meta tag ONLY in my index.php. I use a header.php for my site, but I want the keyword meta tag to ONLY show up in index.php and not my other pages.

    Thanks for the help.

    Yes, of course. It depends what CMS you have - you may have to place it in the header.php file.

    Right, so if I do have to place it in the header.php, how would I do it limited it only to index.php.

    Can I do something like:

    If (index.php)
    {
    <meta="keywords" content=" blah, blah, blah, blah">
    }

    Basically what is the code that I would use? Thanks

    I would add keywords to every page but if it's just for index.php then put it in the <head> tag of that file
