Search engines definitely concentrate on title and meta tag. I have recently experienced it.
So, how could you say my dear friend that That won't do any good.

Don't know what you've "experienced" - but it most definitely was not Google paying attention to the keywords meta tag. They pay attention to other meta tags, but the keywords meta is not one of them...

What other meta tags should I be looking into? Any help would be great

It's not meta tagstoyu need, it's to use your keywords in the content and to market your site so others know about.

I'm pretty happy with the keywords being in the content of my other pages, I was just under the impression the metatags were an "additional extra" the search engine crawlers would look for

[Jill]

No, they're not. Which is why I implore you to please read the Tips for Newbies.

I'm going to close this thread now since it looks like you got the help you need in regarding the tags.
