Keyword and Description Tags Test

Well, the common sense in SEO world is that keyword tags are completely useless anymore. Well myself I agree with the idea, and removed all my keywords from my website except the pages lack of content (the site: bekirhoca.com - in turkish language / about education).

Although my web site hits are not static (because it raises much on the special days) I've chosen some words' hit counts to show you results before the removal of keywords and after the removal. These words are static, I mean they always should get the average hit because they do not depend on special days like which hit much on those specific weeks (like international day of peace and so on..)

All of my pages are reindexed and cached including these keywords ( I think my whole site is now reindexed without keywords already)

Before removal
1 March (saturday) : 336 deyimler / 170 tekerlemeler / 134 kısa hikayeler / 139 öyküler

2 March : 485 deyimler / 216 tekerlemeler / 195 kısa hikayeler / 168 öyküler

3 March : 620 deyimler / 288 tekerlemeler / 226 kısa hikayeler / 194 öyküler

4 March : 581 deyimler / 230 tekerlemeler / 227 kısa hikayeler / 173 öyküler

5 March : 536 deyimler / 234 tekerlemeler / 213 kısa hikayeler / 178 öyküler

(Total number of hits of days of weekend and 4 days of week:5543)

After Removal
22 March (Saturday) : 247 deyimler / 152 tekerlemeler / 148 kısa hikayeler / 111 öyküler

23 March : 391 deyimler / 197 tekerlemeler / 142 kısa hikayeler / 179 öyküler

24 March : 424 deyimler / 197 tekerlemeler / 155 kısa hikayeler / 163 öyküler

25 March : 466 deyimler / 243 tekerlemeler / 184 kısa hikayeler / 173 öyküler

26 March : 460 deyimler / 229 tekerlemeler / 199 kısa hikayeler / 192 öyküler

27 March: 482 deyimler / 245 tekerlemeler / 180 kısa hikayeler / 166 öyküler

(Total number of hits of days of weekend and days of week:5067)


My experimentation was a quick one so I didn't set up specific purposes and may not have a true outcome but as for as I know
my site, there is no dramatic change at all, with or without keywords when I look through the hits I got from the SEs on daily basis.

Maybe you guys can advice me some ways to make this research more real like an experimentation. So need your ideas and opinions about the issue.

And I'll also remove the description tags today. So will try to check whether it affects my CTRs and hits (same?) . And I need your advices on this issue too to make this attempt more beneficial for everybody.

A test has already been completed on this topic and the results can be found here: http://www.navycs.com/blogs/2007/07/10/meta-keyword-test-conclusions
