Meta Tags Help
The Truth is out there!
Many people still think that the meta tags are the most important part of your website, well let me tell you the truth.
No! they are not important! It's what is on your page and what you say that is important. Google does not take your meta keywords into account at all for anything to do with rankings or anything else for that matter.
You can still place the meta description tag as Google may use this as part of the search result text, but more than likely it will use on page text.
If you are wondering why everyone tells me to put in keywords, well to be honest Google has not used the keyword tag for several years now, don't get me wrong you can still add them into your pages for Yahoo, Ask and Bing, but if you are doing it for Google then don't bother.
Here is an exapmle of what Google reccommends you have for your meta data:
