Should component pages be visible in the search result?

Hi everyone,

My question is suppose i have a blog having 200 pages arranged in footer like seomoz blog and when i move to 2nd page and say the url is http://www.seomoz.org/blog?page=2 and when i search exact url on google should this page be visible in search result or not.

Since all component pages of seomoz blog are visible, i think this should not be a problem but when i see other popular blogs like SEJ and seroundtable none of their component pages are visible in search result.

By the way i am using rel=prev and next but not robots: noindex, follow

if you split the page therefore making 2 pages. Out of one blog page yes it should show up in search results in less you don't want it to you could block it but that would be something in which I would highly recommend not doing. It's fine you have no title page to take its place if you're just seeing the URL naked or you're upset with the way the URL looks regardless keep it. It's fine

Thanks for your response.

1 more question should i apply noindex, follow in meta on all of my component pages.

Because i really don't see a reason of applying noindex.
