How To Make Your Facebook Profile Invisible To Google

Facebook allows search engines to add your profile to their index. What this means is that search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing are allowed to record your profile information including photos in their cache and make it searchable.

Facebook provides an option in the privacy settings so that you can have better control whether you would like to share your profile information with search engines or not.

To disallow search engines to index your Facebook profile information, go to Account > Privacy Settings.

Under Apps and Websites, Click on Edit your settings.
