index = put me in your index
index, follow = put me in your index, and all the links on my site linked from this page, too, follow those to index them (though it can be turned off per page)
index, no follow = put me in your index, and don't go to any links on this page at all. *jedi hand wave* these are not the links you're looking for

and the difference between 'index,follow' and 'index,nofollow' ?
