Hire Modee for tech support! Short of that, you simply pick the same words that you might want to use as keywords to describe your site. Go to different sites, such as this one, and right click to View Page Source - compare the metatags with what that site is trying to promote or sell, and you'll get the idea.
Be aware that if you repeat the same words too many times in different phrases, the search engines might ignore your metawords entirely as SPAM-ful.
Nowadays metatags are less important than page content. Web robots crawl over your entire pages to create their own equivalent of metatags.

Are 25-30 Meta keywords to many?
More like keyphrases consisting of 3-5 words each.~I Wholesale BlackBerry Unlock Codes~

If they are repetitive, then even two are two many. But if not repetitive, then even a 100 metatags are okay.

I mean there are some where one word is changed in the entire phrase and all the rest is the same. Is that still harmful?~I Wholesale BlackBerry Unlock Codes~

You may reuse the same word somewhat, or change its form (example: changing the word suspended to suspension), but if the metatags are too redundant it will appear as spamming. Again, most of the 'bots that work for the search engines today ignore metatags and simply scour your entire site for content and make their own decision about what your site is trying to say/do.

Oh okay thanks for the explanation. I only had a few of those types of phrases so I don't think it'll hurt.~I Wholesale BlackBerry Unlock Codes~

Meta tags are (sometimes) used to determine the theme, or category your web page falls into. If I had a page about the Montreal Canadiens, my meta tag keywords would be something like : montreal, hockey, sports, canada, ice, puck, stanley cup, habs, guy lafleur ..

Meta tags / title / description / keywords aren't used by too many robots any longer - rather the robots scour the page for CONTENT, but some search engines still look at these so it is important to have them there. A unique title for each page is a good idea too.
