In which case, he should add:
<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex">
to the html head of every page.
(I have to say, that's a smart way of avoiding any Eternal Septembering, but it'd be a shame. I often use Google to find old HN threads that I vaguely remember from months or years ago.)
- dnautics 13y agoyou may want to consider using hnsearch.
- saurik 13y ago(Google's search is often better for this purpose as it has features like synonym/typo fixing and as it indexes entire pages lets you match keywords across entire threads: hnsearch is myopic on individual posts.)
- snogglethorpe 13y agoYup... Even sites with good search functions are often still way outclassed by google search with "site:..."—and most sites don't have good search functions...
