Bots following links
 
Hi,

How do I prevent Bots from following links on my site.
I currently count it when someone follows a link on my site but Bots seem to be able to follow all links and thus my count sky-rockets.

Thanks for any input.

robots.txt

Try something like this :

Code:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /vb/modcp/
Disallow: /vb/admincp/
Disallow: /cgi-bin
Disallow: /scgi-bin
Add in the links you want them to not follow.

I'm guessing this will work, but will stand to be corrected ;)

Thanks for the reply, however, I have almost 300 links and will not be able to maunally disallow each link (well, do not want to, is a better word :rolleyes: ).
