Just spent a few hours searching for references that will assist me with restricting the access to a board by the Google Adsense Bot.

I have Adsense throughout the board, but wish to keep the adsense bot limited to the Guest areas. I understand that will reduce the relevance of the adsense 'ads'.

All links and thoughts welcome.

Thanks.

Just make sure whatever group you treat guests a part of is using the guests permission mask (edit that group)

Thanks for the response, and that is actually what I have done.

However, I noticed on another Invision board that the Adsense 'ads' bear no resemblance to the page content. I thought they must be blocking the adsense 'bot' in some way.

I would prefer to have relevant contant, but just don't wish to run the risk of having my google account deleted. Some of the content is adult themed.
