[Pro] 'Robots. Index, follow.' Meta Tag.

Hi all,

Does the following Meta tag do anything?

Name: Robots
Value: index, follow

Or is it surplus to requirement as that’s what google ‘bots’ will do anyway?

Many thanks,

Mark

It shouldn’t hurt, but it won’t do anything special, either.

The only benefit I can see using this would be on a page or directory that in enclosed in a parent directory that has been told not to be indexed.
