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?
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.
