Meta Keywords & Meta Description

[Spangle]

I cannot find these in the VB5 settings, am I looking in vain ! LOL

Can someone direct me as to how I set these up ?

Edit page in Site Builder, Save Page. Meta tags and keywords are there after you click save page.

Ok I see the Meta Description, but not the Meta Keywords ?

vBulletin 5 doesn't support Meta Keywords as they are no longer used by search engines.

I need to read up on SEO then !

How the heck do search engines pick up the keywords for you to rank for in VB5 ?

Meta-keywords does not make sense for users, because user will not see them in most cases. These tags were made for search engines.

But now search engines learned to parse content smart with synonyms. What should a search engine do if in meta-keywords it sees words "pop-music" but on page there is "classical music"? Does meta-keyword have sense in this case?
