Coding for Robots

[lanesharon]

This may be totally off topic for this forum, but here goes......
I have done a little reading about robots and have added these meta tags to my entry point page:
<META NAME="revisit" content="14 days">
<meta name="robots" content="index">

Since the entry point page is the one that I submit to search engines, is it necessary for me to add the above to lines to ALL the pages of the website?

You don't need to put the second line, as that is the default. See http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/meta-user.html.

According to http://www.submitcorner.com/Guide/Meta/revisit.shtml (and other pages I found on google), the tag is "revisit-after". Some of the forums I read said this tag is pretty much useless.

And yes, you would have to put the revisit-after tag on each page. However, the search engines will follow the links to the rest of the pages of your site, and your whole site will be indexed. (Unless, of course, you disable spidering of your site with robots.txt or meta tags.)
