In FCO terms the crawling phase occurs when the Google bought access is a page and analyzes it while
the indexing occurs when a Web page appears to be suitable for inclusion in the search engine index
since the 1990s webmasters around the world have used a robot stock text file in the root of their Web
sites to provide any bought with some instructions on how to access their content.
In this very simple text file a disallowed directive is inserted containing the parts of the pages or
the folders that the bot must not scan in order not to overload the resources of the server.
There is also a user agent for referring to a specific bot like a Google bot being bought etc. user
dash agent asterisk disallow slash secret in order to generate this file.
You can use a specific tool available on get SEO fixed dot com slash tools in addition to the robot
dot text file.
We can communicate with a bot crawler through the robots meta tag which needs to be inserted in the
head section of the web page.
There are four combinations alternating between index and follow values with a negative variance maiden
name equals robots.
Context equals index karma.
Follow for example using index a follow will allow the bot to index the current web page and also scan
the pages linked within its content while with no index comma no follow.
We suggest neither indexing the current content nor following the links by playing with a robot stock
text file or the metal robots tag.
We can choose which contents to hide or index.
Now this is the theory because in practice many smaller bots don't actually care about her directives
and they do a wild scan without rules spoofing the user agent in order to avoid being blocked at least
the main search engines follow our indications.
But I have many experiences with a minor bad players which are really annoying and difficult to block
this argument is not a simple technicality as it may have implications in the daily FCO operations for
example by blocking a page from the robot's text file.
You will ensure that the content will not be analyzed by Google which will not even know if there is
a matter robots with the no index value in this particular situation.
You have a snippet without having read neither is title tag nor the method description because Google
couldn't read them but the result is still visible since it was not able to read it it couldn't read
the meter robots in each team out these results have the classic formula a description is not available
for this results due to the Web sites.
Robots Dot T X D file and they are the outcome of incorrect management.
A common mistake for WordPress users is the insertion of the slash WP dash content folder into the robot's
not text file because this will block access for Google bought to all the C Ss or J S dependencies of
the plugins and the graphic theme thus failing to render the page correctly another common move is the
inclusion of secret or private paths into this file.
But in this way we are revealing to a potential hacker exactly where to hit.
And this is not safe at all.
We should rather use a no index metal robots tag and a password authentication system.
Finally I remember seeing sites that use the robots dot text file to remove content thus allowing an
almost perpetual indexing because the board could not access the page to know what it had been removed
in this case in order to avoid a redirect to a new version of this content.
It would have been correct to leave free access to the bots instead a status code for 10 gone but not
a forum for not found since the resource would never be back available not even in the future.
