Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Well, I guess if these are secure pages the correct approach would be the HTTP 403 status code (Forbidden). For example, this is the way apache forbids access to PHPMyAdmin if you have set up IP filtering in PHPMyAdmin.conf. I am not entirely sure how your security is implemented or how the SEOMoz crawler deals with a 403 but it should just back off from these pages. Alternatively, if your URL structure allows it, you could block the SEOMoz crawler from these pages in robots.txt. Assuming your secure pages were in a directory called /secure/ we would need: User-agent: rogerbot Disallow: /secure/ Hope that helps! Marcus
