How do you nuse Keyword Tags in Adobe Photoshop Elements || Efficient use of Keyword Tags to increase your visibility on Internet

Keyword Tags in Adobe Photoshop Elements have been used as organizing metaphor for a long time and slowly some of the users have identified the power of Keywords.

Appropriate keywords in JPEGs can be very useful for Photographers to increase their visibily on web. JPEGs can have these Keywords as Metadata and major search Engines like Google work well indentifying right images for search. And majorly these searches depend upon these keywords. E.g.- If we search for New York Photographs on Google, results will show photographs which have right keywords associated.

Now point is to understand the way to write these Keywords into the JPEGs. So here is a simple process -

1. Attach appropriate Keywords Tags to your Photograph.
2. Select this Photograph and Write Metedata through File Menu option.
3. Now export these photographs.

How to check if Keywords are added to exported JEPGs or not? - Import these JPEGs to a temporary catalog and then if it throws a dialog for importing Keyword-Tags then it shows that Keywords are there in JPEGs.

Now if we use such photographs on our Blogs or Websites, chances will increase for these to come in search results on Google.

Never use Export functionlity of Elements organizer if you want to export JPEGs out of RAW files after Edting in Photoshop or Elements Editor !!!

I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements for long time and always shoot in Raw formats... My usual workflow is to download and import through Adobe Photo Downloader... delete unwanted photographs, add appropriate tags to photographs and make sensible albums... Then I star rate photographs and start processing them in Photoshop CS5... when done the final step comes, when I export all the processed photographs from organizer into JPEGs... After exporting JPEGs I used to share these photographs on my blog... Many times my friends complaints about the dullness, but somehow I never thought about it... 

Few months back I came from a night photo-shoot with lot of street lights in the photographs... Processed these photographs in Photoshop and had used sharpness in Adobe Camera Raw dialog to get nice effect of street lights which were shot from a very long distance.... When I exported the JPEGs, all the charm was gone of these photographs and there was no sharpness at all !!! Then I realized the problem with Export option in organizer. Now I save the JPEGs in Photoshop or Editor only and keep them in version-sets...
