Question

Can I give some directives to let Google scan my site but not allow users to see the cached version when they click on the "cache" link on the Google search page?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Put this Meta tag on pages you don't want the 'Cached' link to show for:

<meta name="robots" content="noarchive">

From Google's Meta Tags documentation:

noarchive: prevents Google from showing the Cached link for a page.

OTHER TIPS

<meta name="robots" content="noarchive">
