    Lightbulb Exclude Contents Written In BBCODE To Search Bots

    Hello,

    Can somebody tell me a way to restrict search bots and unregistered members from viewing/indexing contents written in various bbcode tags like code, quote etc..
    or
    Is there any way in vbseo to let search bots to index contents contained inside hidden forums. I mean its invisible to unregistered users but search bot can index it.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hello ,

    this is called cloaking and we will never implement anything like this to vBSEO. vBSEO is coded by White Hat SEO tactics and we will never change our philosophy. Black hat SEO tactics can give you small advantage for some time however Google and other Search Engines are not stupid. They have various algorithm's that allow them to catch sites who are using Black or Grey hat SEO tactics.

    For your other question you can use if condition to hide bbcode's from guests
