Level in the search engines

« on: February 02, 2008, 01:55:18 PM »

I would like to set my web to link first with my name within the search engines:google.com, ...
It always seem to be an other page first like http://domain.com/comment of RS.htm than the one http://domain.com/index.htm

s there a way to set that?
Could I also set the same happening as well as the other subweb's index.htm?

Confused

On the pages you do NOT want indexed, place this tag in the head section of the page

<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX,FOLLOW">

On the page you DO want indexed, use this one

<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="INDEX,NOFOLLOW">

FrontPage has been discontinued.
If you plan to stay with FrontPage, consider upgrading to FrontPage 2003 now.

Search the Microsoft KB for error messages:

Microsoft groups have additional FrontPage assistance:

Also create a text file as follows, name the file robots.txt, and upload the file to the home page folder.

Code:

# Prevents search engine robots from adding these directories and files
User-agent: *
Disallow: /folder1/
Disallow: /folder2/
Disallow: page1.htm
Disallow: page2.htm

Add as many folder names and file names as you want. Note that not all search engine spiders respect the robots.txt file, but it may help.

The above solutions will work great if you do not want the search engines to index the other page. If you want the index page to rank better when searching specific keywords while still indexing the other page for other search terms, then you will need to examine why the other page ranks higher for the specific search term.
