[iBook] Re: OFF TOPIC: web site question

[Tom Legare]

Google does not search all sites on the web.... only those sites that have
paid extra with their hosting package to be searchable by Google. I have a
family web site, for example, that I specifically did not want found by
Google. The money I saved was more than the monthly cost of the web site
itself.

Subject: [iBook] OFF TOPIC: web site question 
 
Is it possible for a web site to make their text unsearchable 
somehow? I ask because I stumbled across a web site with a friend's 
name and a quote from them, but when I searched on google using text 
from the quote and their name, nothing came up at all. I tried again 
using the subject of the website and the person's name, but nothing 
came up. Is there a way to look at the code to see what is going on? 
Is this a usual practice? 
 
Thanks in advance.
