Administrators can change the look and feel of the search and the search result pages. Administrators can customize one or more front ends to display different colors, fonts, and designs. If a company has multiple collections (see collections), an administrator can make each front end appear in a different format with its own configuration options. googleoff/googleon Special tags that you code into an HTML comment tag that stop and resume the indexing of text on a page. The googleoff tag stops a crawler from indexing and the googleon tag restarts indexing.
