Issues With meta name="robots" content="index,follow,all"

Actually "index,follow" is the same as "all". There is no need to use this tag in the first place as that is the default behavior for most spiders that are of importance. This is also a myth when it comes to SEO. Anytime I see this tag I cringe as someone has not been doing their homework or is trying every SEO trick in the book. Please, don't fall into the same trap as many others have.

meta name="robots" content="index,follow"

As mentioned previously, this tag is not required as it is the default behavior of the spider. If you are adamant about using it, the proper format would be...

meta name="robots" content="all"
