Which of these prevent google from caching my page?

1. <META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOARCHIVE">
2. <META NAME="Pragma" CONTENT="no_cache">
3. <META NAME="Cache-Content" CONTENT="no_cache">
4. <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no_cache">
5. <META HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Content" CONTENT="no_cache">

I want to do this so surfers won't see this 'Cached' link on my listing.

Thanks!

irock,

I'll take door number one: <META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOARCHIVE"> The others refer to network caches, i.e. proxy caches and browser caches. For G'bot, see: [google.com...]

Also note this option, not yet mentioned in the thread:

If you want to allow other robots to archive your content,
but prevent Google's robots from caching, you can use the
following tag:

<META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="NOARCHIVE">
