Search Engine Indexing

    I have a Google Classic Site and I do not have access to the Robot.txt. I do have access to the html code. How can I prevent text or a portion of a page from search engine indexing? Thanks.

    Use googleon / googleoff tags when you write your content.

    <!--googleoff: index-->

    Whatever you don't want to be indexed goes here...

    <!--googleon: index>



    This should work too:

    <!--googleoff: all-->

    Whatever you don't want to be indexed goes here...

    <!--googleon: all>

    Thank you! Will these tags only prevent Google from indexing or other search engines as well? Also, can I use these tags to only stop indexing a portion of a page or the entire page?

    The above robot tag will prevent all bot from indexing your pages.

    It won't stop other search engines. You'll still be archived at archive.org and other private facilities.

    Rule of Thumb: don't want people to find stuff? don't put it online.
