Hi jlyons1234

About 4 weeks ago, for 1 or 2 days, the top 5 sites for a particular search had commented keywords in the <head> area, they also had the DC tags repeating their keywords and description. It didn't last, so my guess is; no, commented keywords are ignored (unless you put a scrap of flash in your page, then they'll be read)
