Are tags that are not shown on the heat map still picked up by the search engines? I can only show 40 or so tags on the heat map.

Thanks.

They are not picked up by the search engines, because they are no where in your page.

You mean that even the tags that are on a particular post shown on the top are not picked up by search engines?

Thank you.

I never said that. The search engines will read what’s on the page. You determine how many tags are in the tag heat map. The search engines can see that, but you don’t show the tags after 40 (41, 42 …) so that cannot be picked up by any search engine.

Regarding tags on each individual post, please start another topic, or see how it works with the search engines to see if any sites’ tags are indexed. Like here:
