Good day, dear readers. Often confronted with the fact that many newwebmasters and bloggers complete mess in my head about using noindex and nofollow. Let's see what it is?
Let me start by saying that in the future you will never have confusion in my head as noindex and nofollow is used in two different meanings with respect to web-document.
First - it's inside the meta tag ROBOTS(not to be confused with the file robots.txt) in an attribute value content. Thismeta tag is relevant to the whole document. Second, only the nofollow - inside tag <a> and is related to a particular link. Noindex tag of a different story, and there we will talk today. It should also be noted that I would consider using nofollow and noindex only Google Search engine.
NOINDEX and NOFOLLOW meta tag ROBOTS
Meta robots tag is responsible for the entire page. Through this meta-tag can block or allow content to index page.
Noindex responsible for banning text indexing on the page.
Nofollow is responsible for the ban indexing links on the page.
Nofollow is responsible for the ban indexing links on the page.
These values are used as follows:
That means - this page can not be indexed at all.
There may be similar to these:
<meta name="robots" content="index, nofollow" />
You can index the content, but to ignore links on the page, ie does not index them.
Or this:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, follow" />
Not index the content, but consider links.
NOFOLLOW in links
Nofollow is used as the value of the attribute rel tag <a>. And is responsible for indexing each specific link on the page.
<a href="url"rel="nofollow"> link </ a>
The rel attribute is the ratio of the document to the document referenced.
In this case, specifying the value of the attribute rel nofollow, we ask a search engine not to go to anexternal link, but also emphasize that we are not responsible for the content.
