no index pollA few months ago, I polled you guys asking how concerned you are about too many no index tags hurting your search rankings.

Well, the poll results are in with over 200 responses and I thought you'd like to see that most of you are not concerned with using too many no index meta tags.

  • 60% said you are not worried
  • 23% said you were worried
  • 16% said it depends, you may be worried

If it is on purpose, I wouldn't worry myself.
