The robots attribute controls whether the SE spiders are allowed to index a page or not. What is the html tag (syntax) if I want to index my page and is this tag be given at the top of each and every page of my site?

This tag is used for disallowing robots from accessing certain pages of the site... It is not used for allowing...

**ssarkar** · 28-11-08, 06:55

What I got from wikipedia that 'noindex value prevents a page from being indexed'. But if one wants to get his page indexed, what should be the syntax. By indexing it takes much less time to find a certain type of information.

**lemon_1800** · 29-11-08, 14:30

Thanks for the informative explanation. And it seems the procedure is very simple, though it will take some time.

Many people mainly try to index their website in Google search, as you said it's very simple if we submit our site to google and then add sitemap. But many people complain submitting sitemap does not work with Google. Google always shows some or other errors while submitting sitemap. Do you know any alternatives to Google sitemap to list all our pages to Google?

**ishan901** · 30-11-08, 06:38

Really great article, very helpfull for all. Make a website and go for traffic, through SE submission, submit in directories, submit in classifieds, and some TE is good.
