I Have set up my page description, page title and keywords for my homeapge. Do I need to have a page description and keywords for all back pages? ...AND do i need comas between words? I see Amazon uses them.

Yes and yes.

And it's a good idea to only include keywords and descriptions that are relative to the content on the specific pages. Don't use the same keywords and descriptions for all of your pages.

Also be sure to make good page <title>'s. They more imprtant than keywords and descriptions.

It's a good idea to have a different page title, meta description and keywords for each page, as each page should be targetting different keywords.

As for the comma's between words, I don't use them as it creates more variations of keywords.

"As for the comma's between words, I don't use them as it creates more variations of keywords."

That is what I thought.

That doesn't work - these are keywords and not "key phrases" each word will be taken individually and any combination will be searchable whether comma separated or not. However the correct syntactiall definition requires a comma seperated list.
