Meta Robots Tag
Definition
The meta robots tag is an HTML element that tells search engine crawlers how to handle a specific page. Common directives include noindex (don't include in search results), nofollow (don't follow links on this page), and noarchive (don't show a cached version).
Why It Matters for SEO
Meta robots tags give you fine-grained control over which pages appear in search results. They are essential for preventing thin content, duplicate pages, or private pages from being indexed while keeping them accessible to users.
