I haven't been using keyword tags to much with my sites and I notice my rankings are still looking good. Does google still factor in keyword meta tags?
As publicly stated by a representative of Google on their Webmaster Central Blog:
"Q: Does Google ever use the "keywords" meta tag in its web search ranking?
A: In a word, no. Google does sell a Google Search Appliance, and that product has the ability to match meta tags, which could include the keywords meta tag. But that's an enterprise search appliance that is completely separate from our main web search. Our web search (the well-known search at Google.com that hundreds of millions of people use each day) disregards keyword metatags completely. They simply don't have any effect in our search ranking at present."
So as of that post Google does not use keyword tags as a factor in ranking a website in their search engine results.
