Just type it into your source code just like you add any HTML. That's all there is to it.

Sorry, but meta tags are not used by any major search engines for rankings any more and they haven't for quite some time. Even more, the Meta Keywords tag serves absolutely no purpose nowadays. Only the Meta Description tag is used occasionally by some search engines to display a page's description but that's it.

yes, very true. Up to date search engines such as google do not use meta anymore. They simple look at the links in and out of your site. So if you had lots of advertisment linking in. This would get you on google fast. However the googlebots will crawl your site anyway if you give it some time. But yeh thats the way to get the bots there fast. Links

Outbound links do not help your rankings.

Yes, but some SEs still do uses this meta tag...and they use the description of your site from meta tag description....but I have noticed that nowadays that Google uses the body contents as the description...
