I did do that. How about you right click on any of your pages and view the source and see that no matter what you place in the keywords section it still displays the dotnetnuke and DNN. In DNN, it is written in VB in the default.aspx.vb page to add dotnetnuke and DNN to the keywords of every page of the site.

Here is the code:
            ' META generator
            If GetHashValue(Global.HostSettings("Copyright"), "Y") = "Y" Then
                Generator = "DotNetNuke " & _portalSettings.Version
            Else
                Generator = ", dotnetnuke, DNN"
            End If

In order to remove this you must change the code and build a new dll.

Where is that in your instructions?

I just checked 10 of my sites running dnn 3.01.01 and none of them display the keywords you describe. I am not displaying anything in the source related to dotnetnuke or dnn other that what is refered to by modules.

These installations are both upgrades and fresh installs. And I have checked both the main installations and child sites. There must be a setting someplace that you are missing. Have you looked at the admin > advanced > copyright information?

We are running DNN2. This may have been something they removed in newer versions of DNN.

But to be safe, I would check the last 2 keywords in your source or the default.aspx.vb page just to make sure! I do agree that DNN should get much credit for there product, but it should not be in a place that could hurt customers SEO.

Although there is a lot to know, 95% of it is easy to understand, and learning about it will enrich your experience of it.

Please go to your site www.fetchboy.net, right click and view source. Notice that dotnetnuke and DNN appear as the last 2 keywords in your meta tags. 

I really would learn a little more about development before giving advice. 

Hi Guys,

In Host Settings under the Appearance section, there is a setting that says, "Show Copyright Credits?" If  check selected is Yes, then it will show those keywords and DotNetNuke information in the Generator, as well as Version Number of DotNetNuke in Title Bar. If not selected, then it won't. If any keywords remain, then you should check your Portal Admin key word settings if you want to change any remaining default key word settings. Once you change those, the default page level keywords should default to whatever is put in Admin keywords, unless overridden by page-level keywords. I hope that helps. Not sure if that is applicable to the versions you are talking about, but is for current version.

Oh, I should mention that you need to refresh the page after changing to view your changes.
