links, noarchive, noindex

Hi,

I have a page which don't want google index or archived.

Then will google crawl the links at this page?

For exapmle, this page is siteA.com/pageA.html and it include the links pageA1.html and pageA2.html, will these two pages pageA1.html and pageA2.html be crawled and archive, indexed by google?

(there will not put any <meta name=robots value=noindex> in these two pages pageA1.html and pageA2.html)

Thanks,

John

Yes. A 'nofollow' command would prevent that.

But I want google to crawl the links at this page. Only don't want google to index or archive this page.

For exapmle, this page is siteA.com/pageA.html and it include the links pageA1.html and pageA2.html, will these two pages pageA1.html and pageA2.html be crawled and archive, indexed by google?

Google will not index the "noarchive, noindex" page and they will probably follow the links because you did not put in a nofollow.

But I would not be too surprised if they gave it a low priority, or if they threw it out before feeding the links to googlebot. There are a lot of hands in that code, and it would be easy to screw it up.

So they should follow it, but that doesn't mean that they will.
