Whenever you create or save an article in Frontend or Backend, this plugin automatically fills in the keywords and description for you.
It does this for the keywords by:
1. Parsing all the words in the article and ordering them by number of times used (you can choose to generate keywords from title, content or both)
2. Removes the most common words in your language from the list by comparing it against a blacklist
3. Adds the top words into the keywords section (Limit keywords by length or number)
After saving the article you can also make some changes and any words you add to the keyword or description section will not be overwritten when you save. But what is with that many old articles without keywords? This version adds the ability to regenerate keywords for all articles in the database. Simply set the option to “Yes”, reload "home" and set it back to “No.” All articles in the database will now have keywords. You can save, delete or change the keywords for all articles by changing the options "Regenerate All Keywords and save it" and "Minimum Word Length" or the "Keywords-Blacklist". If you are not using "save by writing" then the description and keywords aren't saved in the article but the searchengine can get it from the sourcetext, because they are generated "on the fly".. The Keywords-Blacklist is german but you can change this in backend. You can find an link to an english Keywords-Blacklist on the Download-Page.
On these websites you can see how it works:

Thats not all here some other options:
* HTML page title configuration. Set your page titles in three different ways
* You can also customize what the separator is (in this ex. it's a pipe, can be any character).
* Additionally, you can customize the front page of your site's title tag to display a custom string.
* You can have one of four different layouts

I have now added SEO Generator onto all of my SEO sites, because it does as much as I used to do with 3 different plugins. Not only that, but it does those tasks better than any one of those 3 plugins that I've now dumped.
Here's the bonus stuff:
1. The site for this extension has a list of suggested blacklist words, which saves a bunch of time looking for words like "for", "not", "they", etc.
2. The support is top notch, fast, and friendly; 3 things that are rare with free plugins. Definitely drop a donation for this awesome plugin.

I read the review below about the keywords, downloaded and installed the plugin. It all installs and works right out of the box... and the plugin does indeed only generate keywords from the article's title.
So I emailed the author and low and behold, that same day, a version is released with the option to do just what I need it to do.
Excellent... a wonderful time saver and meta-filler that works as stated. The support is an added bonus.
Give it a try. I am impressed!

Install is a breeze... it is easy to configure... and it seems to do what it is meant to do EXCEPT for the keywords function.
I could NOT get it to generate keywords from my articles no matter what I selected. I made the mistake of selecting YES to save keywords and now I only have 2 or 3 at the most where there used to be many.
Other than the keywords... it is OK.

This plugin has great potential, but one huge bug: it does not generate the keywords from the entire article, but only based on the words in the title. This way, the automatic keywords generation is worthless

It's no bug. I use the title because on my news-websites are the most important keywords in the article title. So you have the same keywords in title, sef-url and keyword-meta. This should be good for seo. But you can change this very easy.
Most Awesome.
You Must Have.
Very Great
You can look at any link, examine it, see it gets the title and key words. Great

Hi.
Although the rest of the features in this plugin work perfect, the keywords generator does not. Maybe I am doing something wrong (which, naturally, I doubt) but I tried everything to get it working and had no luck. It does not have any documentation or guides to help neither, and as for support, a author's website would be a good idea let alone forum. This plugin has great potential, but right now, I will stick to the conventional way... Manual Editting.
Regards, Reece.

If you use the option "regenerate all" the keywords are saved in the articles (after loading website again). Without "regenerate all" you can only see the keywords in the source text of the website.
Sorry - documentation in english isn't so easy.
This is a great plugin. We have a lot of content on our site and having to add meta info for each article would be a chore. This does all of the work for you!
I had to edit the SEOGenerator.php file though, because I didn't want certain info showing in the description. There should be a blacklist option for description as well, like their is for keywords.
Still a great extension though!
Thanks again!

i found the 2 plugins seperately and then this one has both integrated into one.. As the KEYWORDS seems to work correctly so there seems to be so code changes..
Should be part of the Joomla Content as everybit helps in seo..
great plugin surprise more people have not found this little jewel of a plugin..
