Title: meta tags for search engines

I would like to make my website visible for search engines by adding meta tags and keywords.
Doe any one have any experience with this?

Yes I looked into that already, but I would like to add more keywords.
Can I just add more SEO entries? and how will they be picked up by konakart

Can't you just add all of your keywords in the properties file? i.e.

seo.product.title.template=$category - $manufacturer - $name - $model - keyword1 keyword2 keyword3

I don't want to hard code them into the properties file.
I am looking for a way to add them into the product record so I can use it for all different products.

i.e  seo.product.title.template=$category - $manufacturer - $name - $model -$key1 - $key...

Look at an action class such as ShowProductDetailsAction.java to get an idea of how the string is created.

Ok, that's clear, thanks.
This can easily be extended. Now I just need to add keywords to each product to build the string.
Is there room to create in the product record? and does that also affect the rest of the program

Each product has 5 custom fields that you can use.

You mean the product custom 1 to 5?
IF so this should do the job, thanks.
