How Do I Stop Google From Indexing My WordPress Site?

It can be frustrating when Google indexes a site that you don’t want it to, especially if you’ve been counting on the organic traffic that comes with it. Fortunately, there are a few steps you can take to try and stop Google from indexing your WordPress site.

First, make sure that your site is properly configured and updated. Google looks for the latest and most up-to-date information when indexing a site, so make sure that all of your pages are properly formatted and that you’ve included all of the relevant keywords.

Next, make sure that your site is properly optimized for search. This means that you should include keywords in the title, in the body of your content, and in the tags that you use to categorize your content.

You can also add keyword rich meta descriptions and add a “SEO by Google” snippet to your HTML code.

Finally, make sure that you’re not violating Google’s policies. For example, you should not use pirated content, include sexually explicit or violent content, or include spam content.

If you’re unsure whether your site is in violation of Google’s policies, you can contact them directly.
