Different Keywords for each page?

[tronik]

I am creating a free movies site, and I am thinking of adding different meta keywords for pages that display links to the movies. Would it be wise to set different meta keywords for each page?

You must have different keywords for all pages. Because all pages has different content.

You should use relevant meta tags for each pages, so that it can rank for right keyword.

It is important to set different keywords for each web page. Otherwise Google will confuse which web page it will list on search engine if all have same keyword. Use Google Webmaster tool, it will also guide you for your mistakes

Google does not use meta keywords any more...haven't for a long time....

Other engines might......I use them, for the few minutes it takes to add them....might just be that one contact that everyone is waiting for.....)))

Yeah different keywords, titles and descriptions are recommended for every website. The thing that often confuse webmasters is that if the website is big (has over 1,000 pages!) it will be very ... boring ... for the website owner to add unique info to each one. But it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to make each one unique!

Having different meta keywords alone wont do the stuff. Target different and apt keywords for various pages. Optimize well on the page and get backlink with that keyword having in anchor text.

Yes dear choosing different different meta keywords for different pages is a good idea.

First. you should confirm the main keywords, and each of the other pages, some long tail keywords can be added.

Yes in every page should have related keywords which will also helps in deep linking....

[mediadeveloped]

Every page should target separate keywords and be optimized accordingly. Otherwise you would be cannibalizing the same keywords.

I like to use one page for each keyword.

Many on this thread mention description for keyword ranking factors. well....

Google Does not use descriptions for ranking factors.

On site ranking factors for SEO

Title - SEO Benefit, Keyword Needed
Meta Keyword - Useless
Description - No SEO benefit, No keyword needed. Write only to attract human to page.
H1- SEO Benefit, Keyword Needed
H2-H3 - No SEO benefit, No keyword needed
Body - SEO Benefit, Keyword Needed. Best if keyword is in first paragraph and used twice in the article.
Image- SEO Benefit, Keyword Needed For Alt Attribution.

Yep, second, third and forth that, Google drop the keyword meta tag a while back, that's not to say it will harm your page if you do include them though, you just wont gain anything from using the keyword meta tag is all.

It will harm you whole site because you will waste time on it.

True, time can be better spent on more worthy tactics

[mikesideas]

I base my whole site around one keyword for an example if my main keyword is "smelly cat"

All my page titles would include this keyword

watch smelly cat on your iphone
is smelly cat real
bereaking news smelly cat no longer smells
does my cat have smelly feet

When my sites at the point when i can create no more smelly cat page titles & relevant content i move on to another keyword & domain not about smelly cat

This is working for me quite well it helps if you get the domain smellycat.anytld

I find it hard researching that many different keywords to target different keywords for each page would take me months. This is just my method it works well for me but everyone uses different methods for different sectors.

I would start by checking who is on the first page for your target keyword and how long they have been there and how long it would take you to claim that spot.
