Frequently Asked Questions
What does noindex do?
Noindex tells search engines not to include this page in search results.
Should I use nofollow?
Nofollow prevents crawlers from passing ranking signals through links on the page.
Do these tags replace robots.txt?
No, robots.txt controls crawler access site-wide while robots meta tags apply to individual pages.
