noindex SEO

Fine-grained control over how search engines index and display your WordPress content. Apply 5 independent robots directives to 22 different page contexts with flexible implementation methods.

5 Robots Directives:

• noindex : Prevent search engines from indexing the page
• nofollow : Prevent search engines from following links on the page
• noarchive : Prevent search engines from showing cached versions
• nosnippet : Prevent search engines from showing text snippets in results
• noimageindex : Prevent search engines from indexing images on the page

Implementation Methods:

• HTML Meta Tags: Traditional method, easy to verify in page source (default)
• HTTP Headers: More robust, works with all content types including PDFs and images
• Both: Maximum compatibility for all scenarios

Control Levels:

• Global Settings: Apply directives to 22 different page contexts (posts, pages, archives, etc.)
• Granular Control (Optional): Override global settings for individual posts, pages, and custom post types via meta boxes in the editor

Perfect for:

• Blocking indexing of attachment pages while allowing link following
• Preventing duplicate content issues with flexible directive combinations
• Controlling archive page indexing with granular control
• Managing pagination SEO with independent settings
• Protecting private content from search engine caching
• Preventing snippet display while still indexing content

Main pages

• Front Page: Block the indexing of the site’s front page.
• Home: Block the indexing of the site’s home page.
