Focus Keyword and HTML output

    Hello!
    Would providing Focus Keyword in the RM related metabox have any effect on actual HTML output, like creating meta keyword tags?
    Or is it just for RM internal referencing, so that RM knows what you’re trying to optimize for and checks related areas (title, description, etc.) against it?

    Thank you!

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    The focus keyword is essentially used for referencing and the plugin does not add the keywords to the header on your site.

    We do not add the keyword meta tag because search engines stopped using this tag a while back. You can however generate this tag from the focus keywords on your site by adding the following code snippet to your theme’s functions.php file:

    /**
 * Add <meta name="keywords" content="focus keywords">.
 */
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/show_keywords', '__return_true');

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
