Recommendations for the Meta Expires Tag

Are you wondering why you should use a Meta Expires tag and why it can be helpful for you? Have you not even heard about a Meta Expires tag before? Well, you’re not alone.

It is recommended to actually not use the Meta Expires tag. There is NO possible way to get Google to stop caching your site, unless you close it or block the GoogleBot completely. No matter what, even if you include the Meta Expires tag, Google will cache the page.

Search Engines actually ignore the Meta Expires tag, which boggles my mind as to why people still use it to get search engines to stop caching your pages. Yes, it is great to use when you want a document or page to stop being in the search engines, but thats it. It will not work WHAT SO EVER to have your pages stopped from being cached.
