Disable search indexing

Prevent search engines from indexing your publications, issues, articles - everything on your publication subdomain.

You can control which publications search engines crawl and index. This is useful for publications that are not intended for the general public or when you want to create a 404 page or a landing page, for example.

To disable search engine indexing:

  • Go to Publication Settings > SEO & Social
  • Set 'Disable search engine indexing' to "ON"
  • Click 'Save changes.'

 

Important note:

Content from your publication may still be indexed, even if the crawling by search engines is prevented, for example, when your content was previously available, or when search engines follow a direct link to an article from other content.

The blocking is performed by placing a <meta> tag into the <head> section of the articles.

<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
