Meta Tags And Frames

Are there rules regarding meta tags and frames?

[xXDesertRoseXx]

I have designed my site in such a way that all the pages are in frames ( 2 col: 1, 0% and the other 100%). Now somewhere I had read that you either should/should not use metatags....and now I cant find the article and I'm not sure whether I should put all the m/tags on all the pages. The reason I have done that is so that the source code is not readily available. How does this effect these bots, spiders etc.? If I say things like no cache, noindex, nofollow. Does that mean that these SE is not going to spit out my site together with everyone elses on a list when some1 searches for something using a SE. I feel so sure that I'm doing something wrong! Everything I learn here, I'll be eternally grateful for :).

If you have an index page that redirects to your frameset then put a series of blank "href's" on the index page.

i.e.
<a href="home.html"></a>
<a href="products.html"></a>
<a href="services.html"></a>

SE choke on framesets but if you give them something to "follow" on the index page then they will

Sorry,

To answer your original question, put META'S on every page after adding the blank href's to the index.html page.

You should be indexed in full.
