    Question How to block postbit data?

    We're noticing that some of our most important keywords are coming from users' postbits (i.e. #posts, location, join date, etc.). How do we go about adding this to robots.txt?

    Robots.txt can only block whole urls, not parts of pages.

    This is common and there's really no fix for it.
