Easy / Dumb Question re: Meta Tags

Question

Where do I put in the keywords that I want the search engines
to pick up?
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
Is it where "Content Type" is?
Thanks

Answer 1

What Micha is trying to tell you is that the keyword meta tag
is useless.
Your keywords should go into the content on the page, and
when it is used in
semantically meaningful ways, it will be picked up by the
search engines.
For example, on a page about dog food, you would want to make
sure that you
have something like -
<h1>Dog food for all canine breeds</h1>
at the top of your page's content. This page will then be
scored for "dog",
"food", "canine" and "breeds". See? The quality of that score
will also
depend on other things, like the contents of the
<title> tag, the names of
the files that are linked from the page, and the density of
these keywords
in the paragraphs that constitute the content of the page.
