No. Meta tags are all but depreciated at this point. he only common
one still being used is the langauge/charset type.
FEW search engines are still "meta engines", and none of the big 3 are.
Furthermore, index,follow is the Default behavior, thus it doesn't need
to be specified.
If you want to keep bots out of indexing items, look into adding a
robots.txt file to your server root. A quick search for robots.txt
will yield you more than enough info.
