Posted - 08/12/2019 : 10:36:19 Going through my site and came across some no follow ( <meta name="robots" content="noindex, follow">) tags. Question what pages should be set to no follow out of the ecommerce templates standard pages. index, contact, cat, prod, etc... Thanks Craig Matheny LazerMmodels.com

I think someone told me to do it to prevent duplicate listings? Does that make sense? Thanks Craig Matheny LazerMmodels.com
