        I think the description and alt tags may count towards the keyword count/distribution, but google ignores the keywords tag for most search purposes.

            meta-keywords and description don't count towards the content on your website, based on whatever I've read, but the description is extremely valuable in getting people to click.  Alt tags do have some influence, but make sure the alt tag is for the user, and not just for the search engines.  Here's what SeoMoz says about description tags: http://www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/meta-description
