Hi,

I am having some doubts in how search engines treat singular and plural in keywords. for example: *** supplier, ***suppliers, ***shopping site, ***shopping sites, provider, providers. Do we need to take care of both these words? How google treat these words and how it weighs the importance? Any suggestion will help me improve in optimizing my sites.

Try to use plural keywords as much as you can. It will cover both singular as well as plural keywords. For example if you use the keyword “providers”, it covers both provider as well as providers.

you can use singular or plural keyword in your keyword tag. No effect on search engine ranking.

Using prural words often make sense ,but you will be surprised that search engines might treat singular and prural keywords differently .However ,no one knows the search engine secrets

USe both as Google will just see them as related keywords, or synonyms and it will extend the reach of the site with the long tail effect.
