Meta Robots

Hi All,

Quick question. Should every page contain a metarobots instruction.

Our site is downlightsonline.co.uk

But we notice that we don't instruct, like this:

name="robots" content="INDEX,FOLLOW" />

or

name="robots" content="NOINDEX,FOLLOW" /> - Which you would expect to use on Filters or pagination.

Wondering if this was actually needed or not. Very much used to Magento and Wordpress which includes this as standard.

Thanks

Chris

The robots meta tag lets you utilize a granular, page-specific approach to controlling how an individual page should be indexed and served to users in search results. Place the robots meta tag in the section of a given page, like this:

Noindex parameter is displayed for filters out of the box

INDEX, FOLLOW are not necessary on other pages

Having meta robots tag in all pages is not mandatory.
