I'm currently testing a website concept, so I don't want this test site from appearing in Google search results, etc.  How do I prevent Google and other sites from adding pages from my WA site to the global search record?  Obviously, I'll need to undo this once the site goes live.  Thanks!

You can add the appropriate tags to the "Raw Headers" field on the Meta Tag page.

However, the solution is rather simple.  Just don't link to your site until you are ready.  That way search engine spiders won't be able to find it.

 

@ clarus: Thanks for responding!

@ egerter: clarus is absolutely correct. There are some ways to tell spiders not to index the site - though since we do not publish new sites ourselves, search engines will not find it until it is linked to from some existing (and relatively popular) sites.
