Remove image URL from a google crawl

smashseo

hello

one of the warnings Im getting is that one of my urls has too many on page links

here's the page:

but the url is being auto generated due to the wordpress plugin NextGen Gallery

anyway I can exclude these from the site crawl. This page has no purpose, as the core path shows these images anyway.

Hi James,

There are two ways to do this;

1. In Webmaster tools, there is a link under the Optimization menu to remove a URL,

2. Or if you'rve got access to your robots.txt file, just add the following to the bottom:

Disallow: /airport-cab/?show=gallery

This will remove it from the Google index next time the file is crawled.

If you are on Wordpress, and do not currently have an SEO plugin, try Yoast's, and use the Edit Files sub-menu to edit your robots file there.
