Nice tip! Thanks.  :D

You might try a little tool that I developed for keywording (multiple selected files), dragging/droping them to filezilla or directly to an agency website: http://stockphototagger.sourceforge.net/

free version of stocksubmitter does this also...
http://stocksubmitter.com

as does http://microstockgroup.com/tools/keyword.php then copy/paste

Jo Ann Snover:
For your own long term sanity, you really want your keywords to be in your image/illustration/media file where possible (PNG doesn't support it, for example, but Illustrator and Photoshop do).

Keywording in Deep Meta, any of the submission tools, or on an agency web site is a bad idea as a general workflow because you'll inevitably end up needing to submit the files somewhere else in the future and then be hunting around for somewhere to copy the keywords from.

embedding them is microstock 101 - this is what the submissions tools that I use do.  You want your metadate written directly into the files.
