Last updated on January 15, 2025 by RGB Web Tech
A robots meta tag is a piece of HTML code that tells search engines how to interact with a page on a website:
"Content is king, but marketing is queen and runs the household." – Gary Vaynerchuk
- What it does: It controls how a page is indexed and displayed in search results, and how search engines crawl the page.
- Where it goes: It's placed in the head section of a page.
- How to use it: You can use it on a single page or multiple pages at once.
- What it can do: You can use it to prevent certain pages from being indexed, block search engines from following links, or specify how snippets are displayed in search results.
- How to use it correctly: Using it incorrectly can cause issues with your site appearing in search results.
- How to use it with other directives: If you combine directives, Google will choose the more restrictive one.
