Additionally, meta keyword tags remain a great place to list common misspellings of important keyword terms.<br /><br />John - 'oldie' or not I always enjoy your stuff...John Griffithhttp://www.pharmaceuticalseo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550428.post-92060907797867103742010-08-11T01:15:15.958-04:002010-08-11T01:15:15.958-04:00nobody really knows exactly how the search engine...nobody really knows exactly how the search engines work ( aside from the guys writing the code for them ) any seo advice you get is to a degree theoretical. The time delay between cause and effect in the world of search makes it very difficult to be 100% sure what change had what effect.SoreButtCheekshttp://sorebuttcheeks.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550428.post-66409959463702891392010-08-06T13:19:39.833-04:002010-08-06T13:19:39.833-04:00Jon,

Just a heads up for those considering "enhancing" their meta keywords in an attempt to hijack some search results. I agree that it's certainly a bit unethical, but may not be illegal. However, if neither of those compel people not to do this then they should know that meta keywords have no impact on search results. They may have at one point, but because of rampant misuse, they are widely ignored by search engines for the purposes of rankings.Jonathan Richmanhttp://www.doseofdigital.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8550428.post-84019152202932068832010-08-06T09:29:27.256-04:002010-08-06T09:29:27.256-04:00John,
