    Hi All,

    I would really appreciate if someone help me out with this question:

    I need urgently Google spiders stop of indexing new pages on one site, but I want to keep all indexed pages healthy and normal growing their ranking.

    If I add:

    <meta name="Robots" content="index,NOfollow" />

    Will this affect the existing ranked/indexed pages?

    or if I add <meta name="Robots" content="NOindex,NOfollow" />

    Will the indexed pages get affected by this ?

    Please some help here is urgently needed.

    thanks in advance.

    If you are adding these metas on new pages..then your index pages will not be affected directly....:)

    Disallow new pages through your robots.txt file
