And it’s about time! Every webmaster has known this for quite some time. But finally it has been “officially confirmed.” Will I stop using them on the web sites that I build? The answer is no. There are other search engines out there that may use these. As another person put it is keyword “insurance.” But I will tell my clients that there is no need to fuss and worry about every single keyword. Focus the attention to the meta tag description. If you want something that can make or break driving traffic to your site it is the little snippet of text called the meta tag description. All 151 characters of it can make a huge difference in organic traffic. But that’s a topic for another day.
