[Plugin: Greg's High Performance SEO] Noindex paged comments?

  • Links within comments are automatically set to ‘noindex’ if I remember correctly.

    That’s not what a meant, didn’t say anything about links within comments. I’m talking about comments pages, ie. comment-page-2, comment-page-3, and so on.

    They are part of the single post page, so you can’t noindex them without applying it to all single posts.

    Those are sub-pages, and the Ultimate SEO plugin was able to set a noindex tag in them. But I don’t want to stop using Greg’s plugin.
    I’m not sure if you are understanding what I need.

    Hi mimiburned,

    GHPSEO doesn’t support adding noindex to comment pages (good idea, though — will mark it down for possible inclusion in future release). However, for search engines that understand wildcards, such as Google, it’s easy enough via robots.txt:

    Disallow: /*/comment-page

    That says to the bot: disregard anything that includes ‘comment-page’ within it, provided there’s at least one directory above it.

    All the best,
    Greg
