So I am no website coder, but I know how to use Muse fairly decently and have used GUI based site builders in the past.
I made a website for my uncle's diesel shop back in the early 2000s. Back then when Google's rules were a little slack I was able to put a war and peace sized paragraph of keywords for Google's bots in the HTML code, and I was able to have his site come up when anyone searched for anything diesel engine related. But Im not sure these days. Some help sites say keywords in the code is bad and some dont even mention it. I was even thinking about being sneaky about it and putting an area at the bottom of each page with a white background and white font text at like font size 1 lol. Is this even a bad idea?
And so I was wondering if embedding keywords in the HTML code is still a thing or what other ways exist to have your site come up on the first page of search engines when people use specific key words.
