Preventing Pages from Being Indexed

In addition to configuring the robots.txt file in the web server root directory, you can within the page specify pages which should NOT be indexed (put this within <>’s):

meta name=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW”

This can be helpful if you have a non-relevant page that ranks well and throws users off. For example, a disclaimer page that has many links and ranks highly, but is not something helpful to your SEO campaign.
