Add noindex tag in head for disallowed paths from robots.txt file
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'seo_noindex'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install seo_noindex
If you're not running Rails, you'll have to add the middleware to your config.ru:
require 'seo_noindex'
use SeoNoindex::Middleware
Add helper to your view file in head section
<header>
<%= robots_noindex_tag -%>
</header>
For example in robots.txt we have this string:
Disallow: /admin
And if we follow https://sitename/admin we get this:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
