Preventing Archiving and Indexing by search engines

Hello,

I have the follow tag between my META tags on the default and archive page, however spiders and robots are
still indexing my weblog, I find they are indexing individual articles, or comment links, am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

<head>
	<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW"> 
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOARCHIVE"> 
	<link rel="stylesheet" href="<txp:css />" type="text/css" />
	<title><txp:page_title /></title>
</head>
<body>

Thanks.
Taochou

Re: Preventing Archiving and Indexing by search engines

Your last meta tag is “over-writing” the first, and is also an invalid value.

Try just: <meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow" />
