The video is useful to reinforce that. I still see designers who tell clients that SEO has been taken care of because they set up the meta tags. RLOL :p

Yahoo still recognizes the meta keywords tag. I've tested it.

Bing and Google do not.

That said, Yahoo is going bye-bye, so soon the meta keywords tag will truly be extinct.

dont forget to put one... At least it gives benefits, even a little...
