well here i got some points to ask from you guys, I hope you would help me. if i change the crawl settings in the webmaster tools ,will it make my webpage to be crawled with different frequency of time? and Do you think by just putting a no follow tag in the page will block the cralwer from crawling on that particular webpage?
Hi......................If you will say that if you will change the setting in webmaster tool so it will change the crawl status of webmaster tools. Keep it up.
The shortest and simplest answer is "No". It just doesn't work like that. If you want your site to be indexed (crawled) more often, you should do some serious link building and to write a new, unique content often. These are the two keys for better indexing and higher positions. Search onl for quality and relevant links to your content. If you want to block the bot, you should use the noindex tag, not the nofollow Another option is to write some robots.txt rules.
Crawl rate refers to the speed of Googlebot's requests during the crawl process. It doesn't have any effect on how often we crawl or how deeply we crawl your URL structure. Check http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=48620 for more info You should place a noindex tag to avoid that page being indexed or you can block that page using robots.txt
If you want to index more pages, and you will change the crawl setting in webmaster tools, it will not effect the crawling status of website.
Hi ! Yes defiantly u can change crawling frequency using google webmaster tool ! And to stop crawling to particular web page u can use Nofollow tag and you can also set robots.txt file.
No follow tag not block the cralwer from crawling on that particular webpage. This tag only used for, block the crawler from crawling the particular link on a web page. Well thanks you guys for sharing all the nice and valuable tips...
