Pages i don’t want Google to index
-
For my site, google is listing pages /uncatogorized, /author/admin , indeed Google is showing these in search results.. I have found the category/ uncategorized and set it to NO INDEX, No follow etc.. is this the right thing to do?
I’ve found the /author/ page, but how do I stop google indexing that? I’m using Rank Math not Yeaost.
I’ve gone into Search Console and asked Google to remove these pages but it seems to be a temporary thing. How can I stop Google indexing WordPress generated pages?
Cheers,
Dave

Hi Dave!
Apologies, but we can’t help with your issue directly because we don’t host your site harryduffinbooks.comon our WordPress.com managed hosting.
To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, as well as in-house support for your site questions.
Because of the way we’ve optimized our service, we also use a customized version of WordPress that is different (under the hood) from what you use at your current provider. As a result, we do not have access to your site and are not familiar with the source of your issue.
You definitely have the option to move your site to us so we can provide in-house help, using our migration plugin and choosing the business plan during the move.
As it stands now, we cannot help since it is hosted elsewhere. The good news is that help is available here at the open-source WordPress forums: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
The folks in that forum are more familiar with these kinds of issues and are in the best position to help. Thanks!
