Search Marketing Expo (SMX East NYC – Oct. 5-7, 2009)
revealed a couple of surprises from the major search engines:
1. Google, Yahoo, Bing, and Ask all joined together to allow
users to dictate which of the duplicate pages on their site
they want the search engines to list.
2. Yahoo -- during the "Ask the Search Engines" panel, a
question was raised about the meta keywords tag. The
understanding was that, in the past, Google and Bing have
not supported it, but Yahoo has. But surprisingly Yahoo
announced that they had actually stopped supporting the
meta tag several months ago! This implies that the meta
keywords tool is now dead for all SEO purposes.
