Glossary

What does noindex mean?

noindex tells search engines not to include a page in the search index.

Unlike robots.txt disallow, the page can often still be crawled but not ranked. Useful for internal, thin, or duplicate pages – risky if accidentally applied to important glossary or blog URLs.
