    Hi all,

    Just a quick question here.

    If I was to link to the site below *** replaces the real website, would the bot not crawl the directory I would be listed in?

    Page I would be listed in....

    http://www.*****.com/directory/dir-26-0.html

    Robots file...
    Disallow: /directory/
    Disallow: /directory/links/

    Thanks

    Ian

    Black list of what, sites that block spiders? I have other things to worry about (I don't do link exchanges so...) :)
