Under Construction site noindex

yienae · October 2016

My "Under Construction" page gets indexed by google. Is there a built in way to set it to Noindex?

Also all the Demo Archive pages and posts are being indexed. How do I prevent this?

Hi,

to disable indexing for search engines, you need to enable Search Engine Visibility option under Settings > Reading section which is default WordPress option of course.

Hi thanks for the quick reply, it worked perfectly for the under construction page. I thought this would make my website completly unindexed, as this is whaat seo by yoast tells me to switch on.

The only issue left are the archive blog post with "lorem ipsum" text. How do I get them unindexed?

Thanks

Hi,

It's not possible to unindex specified page, because this option has no effect on pages indexed earlier

Please also remember that "It is up to search engines to honor this request."

Thanks!
