I'm working on a CMS which gets keywords from end user, which means that they are totally dynamic for each page. I get each keyword separately. What delimiter characters should I use to include those keywords in <meta name='keywords' element?

Second question is, can I use space in my keywords? For example, can I have this meta tag element:

<meta name='keywords' content='first keywords, second keyword with space, third keyword with space and another space' />

Space delimitation is fine. And while the keywords meta tag is no longer useful in Google, Yahoo, or other major search engines in the Western world, some Chinese search engines still utilize the keywords meta tag.

According to this person's experience (comment at the end), using space works better than commas.

But he mentioned it was the days when keywords meta tag was still important

keywords meta tag was maybe usueful in 1990.

Therefor I would say you can spend time putting a comma after each keyword, or simply remove the keyword meta tag.

Separate your keywords with a comma. Spaces are fine.
