Search result pages - noindex but auto follow?

[Bio-RadAbs]

Hi guys,

I don't index my search pages, and currently my pages are tagged

name="robots" content="noindex">

Do I need to specify follow or will it automatically be done?

Thanks

Hi

example:

meta name="robots" content="index,nofollow"

the crawl can index your page but not follow the link in the your page

meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow"

the crawl can't  index your page and not follow the link in the your page

meta name="robots" content="index,follow"

the crawl can index your page and t follow the link in the your page

Ciao

Thanks Maurizio for the reply,

My question is, what if we don't mention 'nofollow' or 'follow'. Will Google automatically assume the links should be followed, like a default function?

Yes, the default action is to follow unless specified otherwise
