Search Exclude Module

The Search Exclude Module provide an admin GUI to exclude selected content types from the Drupal search index. This is very handy when Drupal site employs some content types for backend site building, but does not want to expose the individual content type content nodes to search, and sometimes individual content node display. For example, this website employs a Text Snippets content type. The Text Snippets are used for storing and implementing rich text for use as Views headers/footers, and to embed within other content in various ways, but which should not be available for individual display to site visitors.
