1. Meta Robots:
This should be give on Index file on your page under the Title tag.
Format of this meta tag is: <meta name="robots" content="index,follow">
This tag instructs
the crawler to crewel all the pages and links. This tag gives motivation
to the search engine spiders. Note here we have put the word Follow, on
the end of this tag. If we give 'no follow' instead of 'follow' then
this site would not be crawled. The use of 'no follow' is if your site
is under construction then you can use this to stop the spider to crawl
your pages. The word 'Under construction' is harm to your page rank.

helps the search engine categorize the listing. Format of this tag:
