Hiding a page from search engines

All Pro sites created on Weblium are set to be indexed by the search engines. However, in case you have a particular page that is not ready yet or there is copy-pasted content which you don’t want to show to the web crawlers and customers, you can manually hide this page from search engines.

Tip: To check whether your site was indexed by the search engines, see the Site indexing article.

Hiding a page from search engines

For that, open the site's editor and navigate to the pages menu in the toolbar:

Open the settings of the page by clicking on the "gear", proceed to the SEO tab:

Scroll down, toggle on Block search indexing (noindex) and click Done:

Publish your site for the changes to take an effect.

Important: The changes may not be reflected in the search engines immediately. It may take up to 3-14 days for them to crawl the site and add it to their index. To speed up the process, add the site to the Google Search Console and request indexing.Tip: In case you want to block the whole website from indexing by search engines and appearing in the search results, check the Hiding website from search engines article.
