Ultimate On-Page SEO Tips (by Webnauts)

Hi John. Good post. Id like to add that xenu is a great tool for anyone starting out on their own SEO and a must! Just an expansion on the keywords meta tag issue. In the search engine land article you posted it says:

Should You Use It? Sure, For Misspellings
So there you have it — half of the major crawlers (Yahoo & Ask.com) DO support the tag. Should you begin using it? My advice would be only for misspellings and really unusual words.
As explained, the tag can help with retrieval. A word in the tag is treated as if it were a word visible on the page itself. Now that’s handy for misspellings. For example, say you’re writing about Basset hounds. You suspect some people might misspell the name as Bassett hounds, adding an extra T. You could misspell the word yourself on the visible page, but that makes you look bad. You could insert the word and then try to hide it using CSS styles or putting it in the same color as the page background. But this type of “hidden” text is generally against search engine guidelines.
Enter the meta keywords tag. Just do this:

<meta name=”keywords” content=”bassett” />

Now you’ve got the misspelling on your page in a “legal” means that will be read by Yahoo and Ask. You’re still out of luck for Google and Live.com, but two out four ain’t bad.

I've heard this technique mentioned a lot but having experimented with it I think it's a load of BS. I've tried it with several client sites with no visible ranking improvements for the spelling mistake. Has anyone had any experience on the matter?

Nice one John. Although is meta keywords tag regarded by Google anymore? I would like to hear your views on this.

Though Google may not give much importance as it use to have but Yahoo still love them. We dont loose anything even if we have them for our webpages.

You are right Matt! It is a load of BS. I wrote an article about this, referring there to a post of the Web Spam Team Engineer of Google Matt Cutts: Why spell check is important for your web site - SEO Workers

That practice of loading a webpage with misspelled keywords in an obvious attempt to manipulate a site's ranking in Google's search results. Filling pages with such crap, can result in a negative user experience, and can harm your site's rankings.

I am not sure if I understand your question. If you are asking if Google discounts or bans MFA (Made for Adsense) sites, you are right.

Also if you have too many domains redirecting to one domain, you can get into trouble. More about this: How Many 301s Are Too Many?
