Implementing noindex

There are two ways to implement  noindex : as a  <meta>  tag and as an HTTP response header. They have the same effect; choose the method that is more convenient for your site and appropriate for the content type. Specifying the  noindex  rule in the robots.txt file is not supported by Google. You can also combine the  noindex  rule with other rules that control indexing. For example, you can join a  nofollow  hint with a  noindex  rule:  <meta name="robots" content=" noindex, nofollow " /> . <meta>  tag To prevent  all search engines  that support the  noindex  rule from indexing a page on your site, place the following  <meta>  tag into the  <head>  section of your page: <meta name=" robots " content="no invites noindex"
