Question

this is just a simple SEO question. I have a wordpress SEO plug-in that has this option:

Meta robots: [checkbox] noindex, follow

Should I check this option if I want my page to be available on Google?

Thank you!

Was it helpful?

Solution

Noindex means that the page may not be indexed and thus the page which is affected by this Robots Exclusion Protocol directive, will not appear in major search engines, including Google. The follow directive doesn't have much to do with whether the page appears in a search engine's results.

See this for more info (applies on most search engines): Control Crawling/Indexing
