SEO : Don't Pay Upby Rogem002

In the last 10 weeks I have made two websites Rogem.Net and CheatAtYourGames.Com I’ve been testing which ones get the most traffic, the one with Meta Tags that are brilliant, and the one that’s got home made tags, which were made in 30 seconds.
What I’ve learned is that SEO is not very hard. Let me explain:
The Title - <title>Rogem.Net - Webmaster directory. web site design, web tools, build a website</title> This is what comes up in the browser and is the link on google...
The Description - <META NAME="description" content="Loads web tools to help you promote, improve and build a website, a valuable website directory for the novice to the most experienced webmaster."> A description of your web page...
Key Words - <META NAME="keywords" content="directory, templates, website, hosting, website design, promotion, build a website, web, tools, development, webmaster tools, web sites, java, scripts, php, tutorials, dhtml code, html, submission, host"> Keywords are fairly redundant now. They used be used so that indexers (ie. search engines) would know how to classify the page and what type of content it had; however, since people cannot be trusted to accuractly describe their own pages, the use of keywords for indexing is now greatly reduced or just not used at all by some search engines (Thanks SteviePunk for that).
revisit-after - <META NAME="revisit-after" content="15 days"> when you want the search engine to come back.
robots - <META NAME="robots" content="index, follow"> what you want the search engines to do on your page with the links.
Rating - <META NAME="rating" content="General"> - what do you rate your site. For example, an adult site will have a rating of "Adult".
Distribution - <META NAME="distribution" content="Global"> - which countries should see your web page.
Language - <META NAME="language" content="English"> - which language your site is in.
Classification - <META NAME="classification" content="Web Tools Directory"> Where directories should place your website.
Copyright - <META NAME="copyright" content="Mike Rogers 2005"> Who the site is copyrighted to (you hopefully).
BASE HREF - <BASE HREF="Http://www.rogem.net"> - This may not actually be a meta tag, but it is good for DreamWeaver, its what is put at the beginning of every link if there is no http://
On the subject of the Keywords What I recommend you do is use a tool that tells you the most used words on a page, then make the top 5-10 words (as long as there Google friendly) your keywords.
On the subject of the Description A quick 50 word summary of what’s on the page. It's simple, but yet people still get it wrong.
On the subject of the Title Normally what I do is <THE SITE NAME HERE> :: <A VERY SHORT SUM UP OF WHAT ON THE PAGE>. This is easy to do, and is very Google friendly.
I was amazed to find that I’m getting 200 people a day to one of my sites from Google (the one I did in 30 seconds).
So spending loads of money on SEO could be worth it, but if you want free traffic, do it sour self!
