Use nofollow

[kindasecretatm]

Google nofollow

nofollow means - don't follow the links on this page but index it

no index is the tag you need

in the head of the page you don't want indexed

<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">

or if you want the links followed

<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow">

Alternatively you may choose to use a robots.txt file - which needs to be placed in your root directory.

User-agent: *
Disallow: /2257.html <- for the file name
Disallow: /2257/ <- for an entire directory

For further info - try http://www.robotstxt.org/

Hiya Amber,

I'm making an assumption here, but if you don't want your personal information scooped up by the spiders, you could also try making a graphic with all of your 2257 info and put that on your page. As long as you don't include the same information in the image tag's 'alt' attribute, the spiders will just see another graphic and move on.

Simon

P.S. I'm mentioning this because not all spiders follow the directions you try to give them. Some only listen to what their creators tell them to do.
