Guest Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 you can start by the elementary way of telling bots to stay off a page. meta tags: <head> <title>your title</title> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Control" content="cache"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" content="0"> <META NAME="not for you"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="content-language" content="EN"> <META NAME="Title" content="your title"> <META NAME="Rating" content="General"> <META NAME="Robots" content="noindex,nofollow"> <META NAME="Abstract" content="not for you"> <META NAME="Author" content="me"> <META NAME="Keywords" content="not,for,you"> <META NAME="Copyright" content="me"> <META NAME="Designer" content="me"> <META NAME="revisit-after" content="0"> <META NAME="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="TRUE"> </head> i would leave every line in-tact. some bots aren't as smart as others, and they need the full meta tags in my opinion. and EDIT YOUR english.php and REMOVE "osCommerce" from the title tag!!

Darklings Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 The most i see are open cause they are demo's or abandend sites with no pasword protected admin... You think there is a problem if you password protect your admin? Kind Regards, Tom Even in this dark place, yes, I am afraid of my own shadow.
