Blocking External RSS Feeds from Search Engines

We are thinking about working a deal with another site that will have similar type readers that visit our forum. We would extend them a forum with their RSS feeds, which would include about 500 characters of their feed article with a link to the full article. This will obviously be duplicate content to their site. Would it be best to exclude this forum from indexing in search engines?

Thanks!

Hello Sonnie ,

Your best option will be excluding that forum from Sitemap Generator

How exactly would be best to do that... the link to that forum is:

Gaming News Discussion at Home Theater Forum and Systems - HomeTheaterShack.com

Could I just add: /forums/gaming-news-discussion/ to the robots.txt file?

Thanks!

You can robots it out and set the sitemap to exclude that forumId

or

make that forum available to members only.

I have the robots.txt set, but how do I add the forum ID to the sitemap?

Thanks!
