Frequently asked questions
What is index bloat?
When Google indexes many low-value pages (thin pages, archives, filters, search results), which can dilute your site's overall quality and waste crawling.
Should I noindex all tag pages?
Usually yes, unless a tag page is a curated hub with an intro and real search demand.
Is a page with under 200 words always thin?
No. Some pages (contact, short answers, tools) are fine short. Use the list as candidates to review, not automatic deletions.
