Avoid SEO

alaios · May 12, 2016

Hi there,
a question that is perhaps the opposite of what most people would ask for. I would like to share my web page in a "state" where it would not be captured easily from search engines.
I tend to travel a lot and also to experiement with different styles of photography.

Part of this work is to make casting call for models or offer free services when I try something new.

I would like to ask you how I could share my web page, where contact details and portofolio are there and at the same time stay out (as much as possible) from SEO engines tracking my free offers.

Regards
Alex

If you don't want your site to be found by search engines you can set your site visibility to No (or Homepage Only).

Go to Account Settings, Discovery, Search and set Google Search Visibility and Smugmug Search Visibility as desired.
Note that setting Google Search Visibility to No will not show your site in search engines - although I suspect it will take some time for the change to be recognized.

See What privacy options are available with SmugMug?

Thanks for the answer.
But once my advertisement is not due and my web site is back on google visibility search that could still index my old advertisements.
Right?
