Besides the keyword and description meta tags being the most important ones, there are some meta tags that are proprietary to Google’sOpens in a new Window own Googlebot. According to GoogleOpens in a new Window, the  tags that would apply specifically to Google’sOpens in a new Window Googlebot are the ones that have name="googlebot" in the meta tag.

There are many reasons not to have a Search Engine cache a page. If it is copyrighted, if it contains private information that you do not want displayed from a search engine, or for any other reason you do not want the page crawled by a search engine, you can add the following code to the meta tags of a page and it will keep the page from being indexed:

<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">

If you would like specifically to keep Google Opens in a new Window from indexing the page, but allow other Search Engines to index it, you can place the following meta tags in your headers of the page:

<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">

About the Geekette

I am a Computer and Network Technician. I love what I do for a living, as my work is also my hobby.

All of the technical information from the original Aleeya.net site became this site - GirlGeekette dotNet - and the remaining became what is now known as Aleeya dotNet. This site is where I store all of my notes related to computers and Technology so I may share it with others.
