Keyword Meta Tags Are NOT Used By Google – Matt Cutts

September 23rd, 2009 by Joshua Dorkin | Filed under Google.

I just learned about a new video from Matt Cutts, thanks to Darren Monroe, that confirms once and for all that Google is NOT using the META KEYWORDS tag in their main search results.

Check it out and keep it in mind as you move forward with your website development and SEO efforts.

    Yes Google doesn't value keyword meta tag anymore but I think that Yahoo and Bing does. So I still use it. But I don't spam the tag...Who knows Google may some day devalue Title tag also as webmasters are misusing it.

    Thanks
