    Hello Guys,

    I just had a quick question and I couldn't find the answer online. Does the Robots Meta Tag have to be written in a specific order ?

    I see that most sites have it like this:
    <meta NAME="robots" CONTENT="index,follow">

    But mine is like this:
    <meta NAME="robots" CONTENT="follow,index">

    does it matter if its "follow,index" instead of "index,follow" ?

    let me know what you guys think.
    Thanks,

    Nope, although by default it doesn't make any difference whether you have this meta tag or not. Robots will index and follow links unless told otherwise by meta tags or the robots.txt file.

    no it will not matter at all, as Google bot will still get the response from your robots.txt
