Don’t Block Search Engines from Your Site – Use Robots.txt Right

Posted: 02 Dec 2010 09:00 AM PST

Business owners often ask us how to make sure search engines see all their important web pages. After all, if the search engines can’t see pages on your site, they can’t be found by your potential customers.

Learning how to use robots.txt is a core component of getting the search engines to index — or include in their databases — the pages on your site that you want people to find in search results. Martin Laetsch, chief strategy officer at AboutUs.org, offers a step-by-step tutorial on how to use this direction to search engine robots in his article, How to Use Robots.txt.

Martin’s article is the newest addition to our library of web marketing articles for business owners at AboutUs.org. If there’s a topic you’d like us to cover, please contact me at Aliza@AboutUs.org. Got some online marketing expertise to share? Email me with your article idea.
