How can I exclude display ads from robots.txt?

[GregBeddor]

Google has stated that you can do this to get spiders to content only, and faster. Our IT guy is saying it's impossible.
Do you know how to exlude display ads from robots.txt?

Any help would be much appreciated.

You'd want to make the URL paths where the display ads live to have the crawl disallowed in your robots.txt, just like any other section of your site. Here's some basics on robots.txt.

Hope this helps!
