Meta Keyword Tag is not used in Google Rankings

Google has announced that Meta Keyword Tag is not used in Google search ranking at present. The keyword tag lost its importance long back when SEO and Webmasters started misusing the tag to gain higher search engine rankings for keywords which are not relevant to their website (the misuse of keyword tag can also be referred as keyword stuffing which is a black hat SEO technique). Google started to make modification to their algorithm so that this misuse could be stopped and finally they made a more advanced algorithm which looked into more off-page factors rather than on-page factors. Google still support most of the other meta tags including meta description tag.
