WP find the ‘noindex’ page

Hi all,

i added my wp site to googel search console. now google says out of 163 links submitted., two of them cannot be indexed due to "Excluded by ‘noindex’ tag".

now i have no idea how to remove them. The given url's actually dont have a pages.

here is the urls :


So how do i remove noindex tag from these pages?

Thank you.

 

• Log in to WordPress
• Go to Settings → Reading
• Scroll down the page to where it says “Search Engine Visibility”
• Uncheck the box next to “Discourage search engines from indexing this site”
• Hit the “Save Changes” button below

Hi seoman,

actually its already unchecked only.

 

Yoast SEO will let you configure the indexing, as will most of the popular WP SEO plugins. Message me if you need help (not selling you anything lol- 100% free help).

 

I don't know which plugin you are using. But SEO plugin is default set tag to noindex. Because tags sometimes become too much. So it creates too many small URLs. But if you want to remove noindex from the tags then go to Rank Math > Sitemap Settings > tags and turn on include in Sitemap. Then all the site tags will be added to the sitemap to index.
Not only tags if there is anything you don't to add to the search engine or remove from the search engine,you can also set it from here.

 

very useful tips wan. Thank you. ill follow that.

 

You are welcome.

 

Afridy,

You do not want to index tag pages or archive pages. They provide no value to the index. This will also eat up your crawl budget, causing important pages not to be crawled/indexed for a long time or at all.

 

Thank you for your comment.
