Thank you it helps quite a bit. But where can I find the spellings in American and in British because I don't know all the words from the two different countries.

I've read all three of the Keywording blogs you have written - thanks very much! I learned a bit about keywords on Flickr, but of course those are subjective and not calculated to capture buyers. My journey into stock photography is starting here at Dreamstime so I thank you in advance for helping me refine the title and keyword process!

Just wondering about phrases...

I have noticed when I enter a phrase such as "golf ball",
The keywords are re-ordered into alphabetical order...
And the phrase is split up into separate words, with "ball" coming first and "golf" further down.

Do I need to put a hyphen between the two words instead of a space?
I haven't found any info regarding this.

Cheers

It doesn't matter to the search that the noun and the adjective are together. When the search terms 'golf' and ''ball' are both entered into the search field, the search will return images that have both words in the keywords no matter what order they appear in the list of keywords.

If you were to enter 'golf-ball', your images of golf balls would not be found as easily.

thank you very much for the article!
Every article on keywording is very appreciated: it was useful for me to know about the plurals, for i ever thinked this thing was similar to spamming.

Thanks for the advice. I was uncertain if title and description words should be added as keywords as well.
