Does the answer vary by search engine?<br /><br />I can think of a hundred keywords without much trouble....<br /><br />:-Doug.<br />[]Doug@FootprintsintheWind.com[/]<br />http://www.FootprintsintheWind.com

I guess the more the better, but I don't really know.<br />A good place to find out is the Search Engine Forums. They even have one dedicated to Meta Tags.<br />http://searchengineforums.com/bin/Ultimate.cgi<br /><br />Darren.<br />http://www.bullpen.com.au
