Half Million Dollars On Robots.txt File By: Andy Beal 2006-09-25 Good grief, Reuters is reporting a group of publishers are planning to spend $583,700 to find a way to prevent Google... ... from indexing their content! Link: Reuters is reporting "Since search engine operators rely on robotic 'spiders' to manage their automated processes, publishers' Web sites need to start speaking a language which the operators can teach their robots to understand," according to a document seen by Reuters that outlines the publishers' plans. What the..? Google already offers a way for a publisher to have their content removed. In addition, modify your Robots.txt file to disallow the search engines and you can donate that money to a charity that helps paranoid publishers! ;-) Comments View All Articles by Andy Beal About the Author: Andy Beal is an internet marketing consultant and considered one of the world's most respected and interactive search engine marketing experts.
