We've typically hosted the origin wordpress on a *.wpengine.com subdomain. This then gets the default robots.txt file they apply to keep content out of the index:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

However the downside is that your images have no-index, which keeps twitter from using. We then use the META.proxyWordPressImages option to get around this.

A couple improvements:

  1. document this.
  2. Rather than assume the server will inject no-index, let's specify with a version controlled robots.txt for WP.
