Meta tags "keywords":leave out the commas?

I read that if on you meta keywords tag, you leave out the commas, the SE will link any of the words togethers to match a persons search. What do you guys think of that?

 

Meta Keywords really make hardly any difference worth noting. But it could be right. Personally I prefer to enter the keywords I am specifically targeting just for the sake of it.

But its not going to make any earth shattering differences in your site rankings.

Brad is right. I don't know any major search engine that still uses the meta-keywords tag. It was abused so much in the past that most search engines ignore it now.

Where did you read that?

 

I add the keyword meta data just in case...And i dont use the commas. The commas seem too limiting to me. And i try to only add keywords that are actually on the page.

 

Not later than a few weeks ago I specially left a typo in one of my keywords in the meta keywords tag. It is spelled correctly everywhere else.
My site was 2nd in Yahoo on that misspelled keyword yesterday when I tested it. Go figure.

 

META keyword tags do still have a place, albeit of significantly reduced importance, in the code of websites. Yahoo takes them into account more than Google and they are helpful when aiming for typos.

 

msn gives even more for meta tags than yahoo as well.

 

I thought the keyword meta was more or less ignored these days? Maybe I'll do a test with a misspelled keyword.
