How to get Google to link to posts directly instead of homepage?
I have my homepage set up to display my posts in full.
Problem is, google crawls and indexes the home page and then links to it. Eg: my.blog/page/2
As I make new posts, the relevant post moves further down the page list, and the link goes stale.
How can I get Google to link to the article itself and not the homepage?
Thanks!
Can you send us an email with a link to your site and I'll investigate the specifics of your template and the search terms you're concerned about
Answered 4 months ago · Edit answerWe made some changes to your template to help mitigate this.
I replaced the <h1>
tags on the index page with <h2>
tags containing links to the permalink page for each post. I also added a <h1>
tag around the site title on the index page. This should make it clear to Google's robots what is the title of each page.
