Dreams, I think advertisers in the past were trying to get a ‘one up’ on the search engines by keyword stuffing. I am speaking generally about how advertisers used to, and still do use meta keywords to increase rankings which is the point of my post, that the tactic is no longer a valid strategy to increase rankings. Thanks for reading!

Amber, please note that keyword stuffing is not blackhat seo as it is in the open for everyone to see. It is at best a creamy whitehat approach because it has very little or no effects on search engine rankings.

Also, I believe “Meta keywords are keywords that SEO advertisers use in the code of their site to drive traffic and increase their site rankings organically.” provides the wrong information to the reader because it does not drive traffic nor does it increase natural rankings.

When meta keywords are used properly, it acts as category tagging of the content. Or summarizes the page content into keywords.
