Don't lie about your keywords

[Mack]

Okay, so I've been known to use keywords that don't match the site I'm trying to get out there. For example, years ago when I had a blog, its subject was video games, yes lame I know. Anyways, I used the general keywords; video games, gaming, games, playstation, sony, microsoft, etc. That's just an idea of what I'd use.

When I figured the gaming niche wasn't as popular, I decided to try out using keywords for other things. So I would use keywords like "Obama" "Batman" "Sham Wow" "Pro Wrestling" etc.

This is a no-no and could in fact hurt your site. So, when you run a site, please research keywords that match it instead of actively trying to think of any word in the dictionary that can gain some traffic.
