Title: Noindex for Country URLs
Post by: muratbora on December 19, 2018, 01:47:00 pm

I have one Osclass site installed for multi countries...I have noticed that OSCLASS is marking as "noindex" URLS for countries in spite of already item placed. Is this normal?

See code below;

<link rel="canonical" href="https://www.mysite.com/search/country,NZ" /><meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow, noarchive" />
<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex, nofollow, noarchive" />

is there someone who has Osclass site with multi countries? Did you check your urls HEAD section marked " noindex " and therefore country uRLS were not crawled by GOOGLE.

"Country" urls are not Country urls but Search urls. And Search results are better not to be indexed.

For some reason this is a choice that Osclass team made for us. Same for static PAGES.

Find the noindex code in the theme (99% sure it is in the theme) and change it manually. I did so, not sure if that was good or bad (didn't change anything to my rank or traffic).

Thank you for explanation, I was supposing www.mysite.com/search/country,XX  was URLS like cities.
Ok than I do not worry if it should not to be indexed.
