I'd have to agree with Andreas here.
Wile for Ranking purposes they're not terribly important, at least
Description is still sometimes used by Search Engines.
Plus there's the added notion that Meta Tags *in and of themselves* are a
good thing to put in a page (as any librarian will tell you). Plus there's
no way of knowing what future technoligies can put these to good use.
In saying that, of course, you'd actually have to think about making those
meta tags *really* relevent and page-specific - otherwise, it's just guff.

Subject: Re: [WSG] Meta Keywords?
So, from John & Derek's responses, am I correct in thinking there's no use
for the Meta Keywords or Meta Description tags anymore?
Any web resources/ reference for this information?
I'd like a bit more knowledge before questioning Hitwise.
Thanks
Martin
