I'm using Lightroom 6 and want my published galleries to make use of Lightroom keywords/tags so visitors can browse by those tags. Do any built-in Lightroom gallery options support this, or is there a third-party/online gallery that does?

If you mean online gallery, certainly not Adobe's Revel. IIRC it doesn't even SHOW exif keywords.

Flickr does a decent job with keywords. It shows them, and clicking one as a button takes you to not only all your photos with that keyword, but everyone else's, in two separate groups (perhaps there's a way to limit the filter to only your own photos).

Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.

Lightroom’s own built-in/Adobe gallery options do not appear to support keyword-based navigation in the way you want. Based on the community replies, Adobe Revel doesn’t even show EXIF keywords.

A practical alternative mentioned is Flickr: it displays keywords, and viewers can click a keyword to browse matching photos. However, that navigation may include both your photos and other users’ photos unless Flickr provides a way to limit the view to only your own images.

So, if keyword-driven browsing is important, Lightroom’s built-in gallery/publishing tools are likely not the right fit, and a service like Flickr is a better match.
