Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks, Kevin. Glad I'm not the only one. Disabling tags and categories aren't an option, in my case. Guess I need to look at more of the potential upside. Seems tags and categories, if handled correctly, could provide a new way to engage visitors and search engines. I've heard people refer to 'spidering budgets, or whatnot'. Guess it's an entirely new topic of discussion... if limiting the spurious spider searching, (from good spiders,) means that said spiders will spend more time on the conventional pathways of a site.
