I dont want to totally remove some of these directories/folders from any
Google search results.
I am looking for a search process to be used EXCLUSIVELY from WITHIN
wgtn.net, and not available on the world-wide-web.
I do want to "focus" the search results that would be requested from WITHIN
Worthington Community Internet (www.wgtn.net), to include only parts of
Worthington Community Internet ( excluding certain folders that contain
documents for local firms or community groups that do not include standard
Worthington Community Internet headers or footers and would seem off target
to visitors).
Or, in another case, be able to give a visitor the ability to search ONLY
the Business Directory (www.wgtn.net/Business)
Atomz was providing this on site search facility for JUST the Business
directory pages. But, is too costly a process to be used for the total web
site.
I didnt see anything on the Google web site that looked like they provided
this type of service. It looks like these are methods to limit access to a
web site from the world-wide-web ( outside the web site), not from within a
web site.
Did I miss something?
