You can use this to block certain parts of text on a page:

About googleon and googleoff tags

Put simply, the googleon/googleoff tags tell GoogleBot Google Search Appliance when to start and stop indexing various parts of the web document. Consider the following example:

<p>This is normal (X)HTML content that will be indexed by Google.</p>

<!--googleoff: index-->

<p>This (X)HTML content will NOT be indexed by Google.</p>

<!--googleon: index>

If you want to stop all search engines then have it printed with javascript

Thanks all for your replies.

It was for my website www.reservation.co.uk which has the same footer text, The <!--googleoff: index--> is ideal as I want to block it on all the pages apart from the home

Great stuff thanks
