Hey, when I did it, the only hit was from www.ado13.com, where a list was put
together of Spridget owners who were willing to help out others. I'm fine
with having such a list available , but having Google able to link my phone
number to a description of me, my car, and where I live is not exactly what I
would have wanted.
Hey folks! If you're going to put a list like this on the Web, you should
probably include the follwoing meta tag in the <head> section of that page:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">
That will tell search engine "spiders" to leave the page alone and not index
it into their database. It's one of the few meta tags that is just about
universally adhered to by spiders.
