 * I have been I advised to place my keywords in the <body> of my home page. I do
   not understand where I can find this or where I have to put the text exactly.
   Do I have to go into the WordPress editor and find it there? When I look under“
   header” where it says <body> underneath it says “page content” should I add the
   text here? Thank you

 * Are you sure you want to do that? That sounds like a trick for a short-term SEO
   boost that can get your website blacklisted.

 * You can put keywords in your `<head>` section, that is the appropriate section
   for them. Can you double-check that they’re asking for you to put it in your `
   <body>` section?

 * Thank you for your reply.
 * Below is what they are telling me to do as a task to improve SEO.
 * “The body of your website contains the visible main content: text, images, links
   etc. This main content can be found between the BODY tags in the HTML source 
   text.
 * This content has a major influence on the evaluation of your website by search
   engines. That is why your search terms should appear in the body of your page.”

 * It’s a bit vague what they mean by putting keywords in the body of your page.
   One interpretation of it could be making sure your headings are appropriately
   descriptive, and there is relevant text in your page. That can be handled through
   the /wp-admin/ dashboard side. That’s fine.
 * What I thought you meant was doing something like this:
 *     ```
       <body>
       <p>Keyword-1, keyword2, keyword3, keyword4, keyword5</p>
       ```
   
 * And then hiding those keywords off the screen. That is not fine.

 * Thanks for your help. I do think thats what they mind and I am going to check.
   Meanwhile this is what is in my editor. Where it says your SEO optimised title
   should keywords be in there?
 * <head>
    <meta name=”msvalidate.01″ content=”D50EABD76E251847078A83D7E779F9C8″/
   > <title>Your SEO optimized title</title> </head>

 * No, if you are to have keywords in the `<head>` section it’ll be in a `<meta>`
   element specially. There are plugins that help you put keywords in this section
   on a page-by-page basis, like Yoast: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/)
