    Question about META Keywords

    Not sure if I have this setup right so can someone please take a look at this page?

    Replace the 'META KEYWORDS' Content?
    Replaces the 'META KEYWORDS' dynamically with content relevant to the page being displayed. Affects forums, threads, posts & member profiles.
    I have the above option turned on.

    When I posted that thread, the title of the thread was: Fight Night Round 4 Trophies

    When I posted that same thread, I also entered the following as tags: Fight Night Round 4, Trophies list

    Now when you look at the source code for that page, here is what the META Keywords look like:

    Code:
    <meta name="keywords" content="Fight,Night,Round,4,Trophies,fight night round 4, trophies list,  Fight Night Round 4 Trophies, GamersThrone, Video Game Community, Video Game Forums, Video Game Guides, Video Game Reviews, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii" />
    
    Notice this: Fight,Night,Round,4,Trophies,fight night round 4, trophies list, Fight Night Round 4 Trophies,

    So the red is what I think that vBSEO option is doing. The blue is what I entered in the tags box when I made the post, and I think the green is just the first few words of the post.

    Thats a lot of the same keywords in that Meta tag... is this bad? Do I have it setup wrong?

    Please let me know!

    I do not know the solution.....but the way your metakeywords looks like is definitely not favorable for your SEO campaign.

    Did you see how many times "Fight Night Round 4 Trophies" shows up in the keywords tag? How is that okay?

    Yes , that is thread title. vBSEO adds thread title and each single word from title to metas.

    Okay, so I guess I should just not add tags to those posts then?
