    Re: Keywords for descriptions, list them here.

    Good idea for a thread.  I think keywords get overlooked a lot.  The only category I've created is James Bond, and the keywords I used are:
    fleming spy movie book british brosnan connery moore dalton craig

    I didn't know at the time that the search checks all text fields, so some of these are redundant with the full category description.  Maybe I should replace "fleming" -- who knows how many people have searched for "lazenby" and not found my category!


    What, no "007"?

    My question is, what does a search search?  Just the key words?  Category name?  Text of the descriptions?

    My unscientific experiments tell me it searches all text fields (including the category title, which covers "007" for my category).

    In any case, no search can find what is not there.  So if the Dive Shops category does not have the word "scub" in it anywhere, there's not much to be done except ask the category leader to put it in - somewhere.

    Yeah, "scuba" ought to be a keyword for that one.  Basically, use keywords for words that you want to hit on your category but that you haven't put in the description or title.
