How can I prevent certain pages from being indexed by Google?

Technical Q&A
1

Hi there,

I would like to improve my SEO for my website www.alixir.ma. Currently, I would like some pages not to be indexed and crawled by google.

If I add this code to the theme.liquid, does it exclude the contact page from being indexed:

{% if handle contains ‘contact-alixir’ %}

{% end if %}

What about collections: I would like to exclude this page https://www.alixir.ma/collections and keep the specific collections indexed https://www.alixir.ma/collections/skincare-routine-products. Does the following work ?

{% if handle contains ‘collections’ %}

{% end if %}

KR,

You can test it by looking in the inspector to see if your meta tag shows up. You might need to be more specific with your condition, for example collection.handle instead of just handle.
