No you need to create a robots.txt file in the root of your site: www.example.com/robots.txt User-agent: *
Disallow: /foldername/ a simple text file with nothing but: # /robots.txt file for http://www.example.com/ User-agent: *
Disallow: /foldername/ [edited by: WiseWebDude at 10:14 pm (utc) on Dec. 26, 2006]

Hi, disallowing Google to crawl a directory is not the solution for your "PR4 on all internal pages, but PR0 on the index page [webmasterworld.com]" problem. Try to understand that first before taking any wild actions. This won't channel any PR to your main page.

Javascript Redirection? If it is a Permanent Redirection through 301 then its ok otherwise you run the risk of being termed as a spammy site because of sneaky redirects.

You'll need to use server side scripting (php, asp, asp.net or so) to make a permanent redirect (a socalled '301 Permanently Moved' header status code). This cannot be done by javascripting.

i have a lot of external backlinks pointing to those pages.
i dont want to lose the PR, i want to channel it back to the main page by redirect. which redirect would work for that?

301 redirect via .htaccess file. Do NOT do javascript OR "meta refresh" redirects. one line in .htaccess: Redirect permanent /olddirectory/oldfile.html http://www.example.com/newdirectory/newfile.html of course, put your info in for the actual site, LOL.
