Hi--

What's the general wisdom: when setting up the meta keywords on my homepage, is it better to have lots of keywords, or just a few? Does the answer vary by search engine?

I can think of a hundred keywords without much trouble....

I guess the more the better, but I don't really know.
A good place to find out is the Search Engine Forums. They even have one dedicated to Meta Tags.

HI

just think of it as a dilution factor - a keyword amongst 10 means 10% from the part of the relevancy spiders get from tags

I use about 20, always use combinations of two or three

Cheers

Thanks. I've got about 120 phrases right now. Guess I'd better reduce it, huh?
