Frequently asked questions
Meta robots or robots.txt — what is the difference?
robots.txt controls crawling (whether bots fetch the page); meta robots controls indexing (whether the fetched page may appear in results). They solve different problems.
When should I use noindex?
For thin, private or utility pages — checkouts, thank-you pages, internal search — that have no value in search results.
What does nofollow here mean?
It tells crawlers not to follow any links on that page. It is different from the rel=nofollow attribute on individual links.
