Should I no Index or Archive a 301 Page in WordPress

3 replies
I have some old pages that no longer exist (for example, the blog URL changed).
I have created a page with the old blog URL and then added a 301 so that it redirects to the new blog url.

The page is virtually blank since it only exists to achieve the 301 in WordPress (Genesis).

Should I noindex or noarchive this page? Will it show up in feeds?

    301 them all, so they all redirect to new blog. There is a plugin you can get which will redirect according to category (I don't remember the name though). But do this since you don't know where all links may exist and you don't want people or google bots to 404 the page.

      Thanks for that. Brilliant! It was because of the Google bots that I needed to do it. Thanks again.
