keywords and commas

[TPP 1]

Hi Just joined Alamy and have a question about keywords. In the help it says not to use commas to separate keywords that's fine but how does the system now how to differentiate a phrase from an individual word eg  "bird in long grass" does it see it as 4 separate keywords? Its just that I'm used to using commas to separate keywords and phrases and it doesn't quite feel right to only leave a space.

 

Thanks

There are quite a number of threads about this.

If you do not want keywords to be glued together in an unfortunate way and still want to use commas for phrases (I do) - you should observe the rules carefully.
