Hello everyone,

we don't want specific Excelfiles, that are linked on our website, to be shown in searchengines.

Does anyone know a way to set a X-Header in an Excelfile so this isn't the case anymore? 

Thank you in advance!

 

Sincerely,
Nikolai Lasarzick

  Google supports the X-Robots-Tag header. I am not sure if other search engines honor this as well.

  Another solution would be adding the files to the robots.txt file.

  Hi Nikolai,

  If you are using the X-Robots tag header, something like this might help:
  
  To use the X-Robots tag on an Apache server, add the following code to your website's .htaccess or httpd.config file.
  
  

  <Files ~ ".xlsx$">   Header set X-Robots-Tag "noindex, nofollow" </Files>

  Kind regards,
  cube
