Is there any harm in having many keywords associated in your "All-in-one-SEO plugin" settings? I currently have 9 keywords in the "home" keyword section but would adding many more water it down?

    To be honest the META keywords tag is outdated and probably not even worth bothering with. In fact, META keywords are only useful for your competitors to see what you are potentially optimising your webpage for these days.

    Does this mean you should give up on META keywords? It depends, they may still hold some credence with other search engines but if you wish to still use them, less is more in my opinion.

      meta keywords are never out , their efficiency and Google algorithms have changed but meta keys do have vital effect on your site...

        I dont have a strong reference to support my statement, but I do think that meta tags are out. The only use is to display the description in the search engine. Which that includes the meta keywords are out as well and not too sure how important are them to google search now.

    META keywords tag is outdated as well as probably not even worth bothering with. META keywords are only useful for their competitors to see what they are possible optimising their webpage for these days.

    a certain amount of keywords was pleased to the robot . excess will definitely make it bad. tow to three is the best strategy for home page which we can read from google files.

    Are you using those keywords in your posts or not? That is the real question, and I hope you are optimizing 1 or 2 keyword per post in a natural flow in your content. This is the most important part not that if you have them in Mata tags or not. As everybody knows title and description Tags are important as they show up on your Google search results, and you can make them attractive and powerful to have user click on yours then the other results.
