Quick question about editing a meta robots tag in Magento

Amarilloway · 05-12-2011, 04:39 AM

Hi there,

I am trying to include a meta robots tag (with noindex, follow values) in a single page in Magento.

The page is not a product page is a review one, so I don't know really where to start.

Thank you

Do you mean like this:

Code:

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

It is recommended not to use the Meta Robots tag, though, as search engines often ignore it. If you need to control the search engine robots, use a robots.txt file or modify your htaccess file, instead. Many people are concerned that if a bot comes to their site through a subpage and not their homepage, the robots.txt file will not be read, but this is not true. The robots.txt is read each time the bot comes to a new domain. You can verify this through your web logs.
