Meta Robots Generator
Control how search engines interact with individual pages on your site.
Meta Robots Generator
Take control of how search engines crawl and index your pages. Generate precise <meta name="robots"> tags.
Generated HTML Snippet
<head> section
Implementation Notice
Place this snippet securely inside the <head> section of your HTML document. The default behavior is index, follow, meaning if this tag is completely omitted, search engines will naturally index the page and crawl links.
Robots.txt vs Meta Robots
While a robots.txt file dictates rules for your entire website (or specific folders), the robots meta tag gives you fine-grained control over individual pages. It allows you to specify whether a page should be shown in search results, and whether the links on that page should be followed by crawlers.
Common Use Cases
- Staging Environments: Set your entire staging site to
noindex, nofollowto prevent it from leaking into public search results. - Thank You Pages: Use
noindexon checkout or lead generation "Thank You" pages so they can't be found directly via Google. - Internal Search Results: Often, you don't want Google indexing your internal site search pages. A
noindex, followtag prevents them from appearing in Google while still allowing link discovery.
