Google not Keen on Keywords
Posted by Cincinnati SEO on October 22nd, 2009
Matt Cutts, Google’s head of spam detection, has recently stated that Google is no longer using the meta keyword tag as one of its metrics that it pulls its data from when incorporating a website into it’s database. Matt sited people stealing other peoples keywords and using other popular website names as keywords, as two of the reasons why they officially have stopped using the keyword meta tag.
SEO Ohio will continue to use the meta keyword tag because there are search engines other than Google who possibly do use this tag and until I determine there to be an actual negative for using them SEO Ohio will continue to do so.
