Meta keywords don't affect your rankings, and it is less important when it comes to search engine rankings. It would be helpful if you focus on promoting your site in different possible ways that will generate quality backlinks.

Now Google doesn't consider Meta keywords, it only considers title & Meta descriptions. So when targeting keywords, you should use your keywords in title & Meta description. Also while searching on Google, it show title & Meta description in their search results.

Meta tags are still very useful and they will be used in future too. We should not stop to use meta tags in our site. We have to use them for better results.
