Block More than Just Files-Directories Also

26 Jun 2014, 10:10

I was wondering if the "file protection" feature of Hotlink Blocker could also be used to "mask" or hide entire (or sections thereof) folders of content that you don't want the bots and spiders to index. Let's face it, most of the bots out there completely ignore the rules in the ROBOTS.TXT file, and pickup/index TEST and BACKUP directories, which then get reported as "bad" in the Google and Bing webmaster tools, driving down your rankings. Please me know if would be possible.

Hello,

Unfortunately, HotlinkBlocker is unable to completely prevent picking up/indexing TEST and BACKUP directories. It's might not be a good idea to leave these folders on a live server.
But i believe there's a possibility to restrict access to certain folders in IIS.
