    1. No follow tag is used for specific links. If you want to make specific weblink nofollow then use rel="nofollow" tag. Check this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=660-ElmeE30

     

    2. For posts, it is no index - which means post appears fine but Google does not index it in the search engine. For this open post in edit mode and look for no-index settings in genesis seo box at the bottom.

    hi Davinder -- Does the use of No-Index on POSTS cause SEO problems with Google?

    I ask this because I use No-Index a lot to hide some Posts from indexing when the POST is just providing content for a PANEL on the Home Page for example.

    But i keep getting Error messages from Google Console stating that the no-index is deemed to be an error and I am concerned that this is effecting the google listing for some client sites.

    what would you opinion be on that one?

    thanks

    Philip
