      Do keywords in the footer carry the same weight as keywords on the rest of the page?

      Should we avoid having some keywords in the footer?

        I would be VERYYYY careful with this. Focus on putting your keywords in your content in a way that makes sense to the reader. Stuffing footers with your keywords is a definite NO NO!
