    1. The word meaning of NOODP means NO Open Directory Project Title. Generally if someone types in a keyword into the search, Google may use descriptions from the open directory project as the page title and meta description for you organic listing. If you wish the search engine to follow your page tile then you got to put this tag in your metas.

      META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOODP" (stops MSN, Google and Yahoo from using ODP directory)
      or
      META NAME="Slurp" CONTENT="NOODP (stops just Yahoo from using ODP directory)

    Allow: /
