    Hi guys

    I just read through this thread about not indexing search results.

    So in my case, I have three different languages and a custom search. For the moment I did setup my robots.txt like this:

    User-agent: *
Disallow: /suche/
Disallow: /fr/recherche/
Disallow: /it/cerca/
Disallow: /*?s=
Disallow: /fr/*?s=
Disallow: /it/*?s=

    a) Is this a correct and complete solution so Google will not index internal search results from the website itself?
    b) Do I additionally need to set the search result pages to noindex and nofollow with the robots meta tag and if yes, how exactly can I achieve that?

    Thank you very much
    Michael

    Hey Michael,

    Those should be working just fine – there is also:

    Block your site’s search result pages
