I have about three portals on a site, but there is one that I would like to use Google Analytics for, but keep from showing up in the search results.  I thought of using the metatag:

<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
in the default.aspx, or perhaps using robots.txt, but both of those would probably block all of the other portals as well, right?

Is there any way of limiting one portal from being indexed? 

Thanks,

Kevin

you could add the metatag in the skin, like this (ascx skinning only)

<script runat="server">
    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        Page.Header.Controls.Add("<meta name=""robots"" content=""noindex"">)
    End Sub
</script>

or just add the meta tag per page through page settings (considerably more work, but more granular control)

Erik,
Your code didn't work for me (threw errors).

The following snipped worked:

<script runat="server">
    Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
            Dim descriptionHtmlMeta As New HtmlMeta()
            descriptionHtmlMeta.Name = "robots"
            descriptionHtmlMeta.Content = "noindex"
            Page.Header.Controls.Add(descriptionHtmlMeta)
    End Sub
</script>

 This code had a little issue, it creates a new meta tag instead of updating the existing one.

Could someone help me. I need a similar script but instead of creating a new meta tag it should update the existing one with the same name.

Thanks in advance
