Proyek Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) adalah inisiatif sumber terbuka yang mengklaim dapat meningkatkan pengalaman pengguna seluler. Implementasi AMP tidaklah mudah. Ada banyak potensi masalah yang muncul setelah menggunakan AMP. Oleh karena itu, lebih baik untuk menonaktifkan AMP sesegera mungkin.
- Hapus tautan
rel="amphtml"dari halaman non-amp. - Atur NOINDEX untuk halaman AMP
Sebelum saya masuk ke penjelasan teknis dengan langkah-langkah yang tepat, izinkan saya memberi tahu Anda ….
Mengapa menghapus AMP adalah ide yang bagus?
- Sejenak, tolong lupakan pernyataan “Kecepatan adalah faktor peringkat“. Hanya memiliki situs seluler tercepat di Internet dengan desain yang mengerikan tidak cukup untuk pertumbuhan blog. Sejauh menyangkut nilai moneter dan branding, jika blog Anda tidak berkinerja baik karena AMP, mengapa mengambil risiko?
- Bayangkan jika Anda memiliki 1000 halaman, bukankah rumit untuk memastikan bahwa semua halaman AMP berfungsi dengan baik atau tidak? Google Search Console menampilkan informasi yang terbatas, itu tidak cukup bagi webmaster untuk menganalisis kegunaan halaman AMP.
- AMP meningkatkan pekerjaan ekstra bagi blogger. Tidak semua blogger paham teknologi. Saya harus memeriksa setiap halaman web. Saya menemukan suatu tempat iframe YouTube tidak berfungsi, tidak ada formulir komentar, bahkan beberapa kode HTML tidak berfungsi di kotak penulis saya, dll. Memang, AMP memaksa webmaster untuk berkorban banyak.
- Saya menganggap, menggunakan plugin tambahan akan mengundang kemungkinan bug, masalah keamanan, dan konflik dengan plugin lain. Sejauh ini saya belum menemukan plugin yang dapat diandalkan untuk AMP.
- Saat ini, AMP bukanlah faktor peringkat untuk SERP seluler. Ya, ini mungkin luar biasa, menakjubkan bagi penerbit berita untuk mendapatkan peringkat di bawah tajuk yang disebut “Top Stories”. Tapi, bagaimana dengan blog baru? Apakah layak mengambil risiko untuk AMP?
Mengapa saya menghapus AMP dari Blog saya? – Alasan Besar
Hanya setelah beberapa hari menginstal plugin AMP, saya harus berurusan dengan banyak masalah yang membuat frustrasi. Jadi, saya sangat kecewa dan saya memutuskan untuk menghapusnya. Di bawah ini adalah beberapa tautan masalah penting.
Referensi: Daftar masalah yang saya hadapi dengan plugin AMP untuk WP
- https://wordpress.org/support/topic/facing-redirection-loop-non-slash-to-slash/
- https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-showing-different-in-amp/
- https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-trailing-slash/
- https://twitter.com/TheGulshanKumar/status/827897651282706432
Bahkan, saya harus memperbaiki masalah AMP halaman demi halaman sejauh yang bisa saya temukan –
- Saya perhatikan bahwa di AMP, Google AdSense tidak berkinerja dengan baik.
- Ketika Anda memiliki halaman konten yang panjang, memverifikasi setiap elemen halaman web berfungsi dengan baik atau tidak menjadi membosankan. Saya takut melihat beberapa iframe video YouTube saya tidak berfungsi. Akhirnya, saya memperbaikinya juga dengan menambahkan beberapa JS yang diperlukan, untuk sesaat tidak diketahui.
Bagaimana cara menonaktifkan halaman AMP untuk WordPress?
Aturan emas
Jangan hanya menonaktifkan plugin AMP apa pun dan menganggapnya sudah selesai.
Jangan mengalihkan dari AMP ke permalink Non-AMP saat halaman AMP masih terindeks di SERP. Jika tidak, pengunjung organik Anda akan melihat kesalahan.
Konsep di balik solusi untuk menonaktifkan AMP tanpa kesalahan 404
Seperti yang kita ketahui bahwa Googlebot menemukan halaman AMP menggunakan tautan rel="amphtml" dari header situs web.
Untungnya, markup ini tidak ada hubungannya secara langsung dengan pengunjung manusia. Jadi, kita dapat menghapusnya untuk memberi tahu orang-orang di Google, maksud saya Googlebot bahwa kita tidak memiliki Halaman Web versi AMP. 🤷
Sementara Google melakukan de-indeks halaman, untuk sementara kami akan tetap menyajikan halaman AMP kepada pengunjung kami dengan menjaga plugin AMP kami tetap aktif.
Sementara diskusi tentang topik hangat ini, pertanyaan utama ada di benak kami-
Bagaimana jika Google menganggap halaman versi AMP sebagai duplikat URL untuk kanonis?
Tentu saja, itu karena kita telah menghapus markup relasi. Berdasarkan konsep ini, saya sangat merekomendasikan penggunaan NOINDEX untuk menghapus halaman AMP dari Google Penelusuran.
Untuk menonaktifkan halaman AMP dengan benar tanpa memengaruhi SEO, yang perlu Anda ikuti hanyalah dua langkah utama: –
- Pertama, hapus tautan
rel="amphtml"keluaran dari halaman non-amp. - Atur NOINDEX untuk halaman AMP
Menarik bukan? Mari kita masuk ke detail praktis langkah demi langkah.
Metode yang disarankan untuk Pengguna AMP
- Nonaktifkan dan Hapus plugin AMP.
- Instal dan aktifkan plugin AMP untuk WP (Ini akan membuat prosesnya lebih mudah)
- Buka Pengaturan Lanjutan AMP untuk WP
- Aktifkan “Ubah Titik Akhir ke ?amp” untuk mengembalikan struktur tautan permanen plugin resmi AMP.
- Sekali lagi dalam pengaturan lanjutan, apakah Anda melihat area teks untuk Enter HTML in Head? Masukkan kode di bawah ini.
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow"/>- Terakhir, gulir halaman ke bawah hingga terakhir, aktifkan “Mode Dev di AMP“.
- Pertahankan status ini selama 7 hari hingga semua halaman AMP hilang dari SERP.
Metode yang disarankan untuk AMP untuk Pengguna WP
- Instal dan aktifkan plugin AMP untuk WP
- Buka Pengaturan Lanjutan AMP untuk WP
- Apakah Anda melihat area teks untuk Memasukkan HTML di Head? Masukkan kode di bawah ini untuk noindex AMP dari SERP.
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow"/>- Gulir halaman ke bawah, aktifkan “Mode Dev di AMP“.
- Pertahankan status ini selama 7 hari hingga semua halaman AMP hilang dari SERP.
Itu saja. Dan, ini adalah cara ramah SEO yang tepat untuk menyingkirkan AMP.
FYI: Ketika Anda mengaktifkan mode dev, secara otomatis menghapus rel=”amphtml”. 😎
Metode lama untuk AMP untuk Pengguna WP
Langkah 1. Hapus keluaran rel=”amphtml” dari kepala
Dengan menggunakan RegEx, Anda dapat mencocokkan string dan menggantinya dengan nilai yang Anda inginkan (yang kosong). Saya pikir ini adalah cara termudah untuk menghapus rel="amphtml" dari output HTML WordPress.
Dengan kata sederhana, dengan langkah-langkah cerdas di bawah ini, kita akan memindai markup AMP di halaman HTML WordPress, kita akan menghapusnya dengan cepat menggunakan Search & Replace melalui RegEx.
Proses
Untuk menghapus tautan rel="amphtml" dari kepala, buka langkah-langkah ini.
- Instal & aktifkan plugin yang paling berguna yang disebut Real-Time Find and Replace. Plugin ini memungkinkan Anda untuk secara dinamis (yaitu pada saat halaman dibuat) mengganti kode dan teks dari tema dan plugin lain dengan kode dan teks yang Anda pilih sebelum halaman dikirimkan ke browser pengguna.
- Buka Alat > Temukan dan Ganti Waktu Nyata
- Periksa Use Regex
- Dalam bidang Find (Temukan), ketik persis
<link rel="amphtml" href="(.+)" > - Di bidang Replace (Ganti), biarkan kosong.
- Perbarui pengaturan. Itu saja.
Kami berterima kasih kepada penulis, plugin ini menghemat waktu kami yang berharga.
Langkah 2. Siapkan NOINDEX untuk halaman AMP
Ini adalah langkah penting untuk menghindari pengindeksan konten duplikat karena pada langkah terakhir kita telah menghapus rel="amphtml" dari header situs web.
- Buka pengaturan plugin AMP untuk WP
- Pergi ke SEO
- Tambahkan kode meta di bawah ini ke bagian kepala
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow"/>
Proses ini tidak akan memengaruhi peringkat halaman kanonis (Non-AMP) Anda.
Atau, tambahkan cuplikan di bawah ini menggunakan plugin Code Snippets.
// remove rel="amphtml" added by AMP for WP plugin
add_filter('ampforwp_modify_rel_canonical', 'prefix_remove_amphtml'); function prefix_remove_amphtml($amphtml){ return; }
// set noindex for AMP pages
$url = "//{$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']}{$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]}";
if (preg_match("#/amp/#", $url))
{
header( "X-Robots-Tag: noindex, follow", true );
}Bagaimana cara memeriksa status Noindex AMP?
Inilah cara mudahnya –
- Pergi ke Google.com
- Cari seperti https://www.gulshankumar.net/id/*/amp/
Setelah mengikuti proses di atas, Anda harus tetap mengaktifkan plugin AMP Anda sampai Anda melihat 0 halaman AMP yang terindeks di Penelusuran.
Hal yang Harus Dilakukan Setelah 7 hari ketika halaman AMP noindex selesai
- Jangan ragu untuk Menghapus plugin AMP untuk WP
- Siapkan pengalihan wildcard dari AMP ke halaman NON-AMP untuk mencegah 404. (Langkah opsional untuk pengguna AMP untuk WP di masa lalu yang memiliki struktur permalink /amp/).
Terima kasih telah membaca artikel ini sejauh ini. Saya sangat menghargai waktu Anda yang berharga. Jika Anda membutuhkan bantuan mendesak terkait penghapusan halaman AMP atau membutuhkan solusi untuk pendekatan khusus. Silakan berdiskusi di bagian komentar. Selanjutnya, saya akan ada di sana bersama Anda untuk membantu. Terima kasih!
Metode ini sudah teruji dan berhasil untuk saya. Saya cukup beruntung, panduan ini telah diapresiasi oleh penulis Marketing91, The Kinsta Blog dan banyak lagi.
Panduan yang sangat baik. Saya yakin Google sengaja mempersulit untuk beralih dari platform AMP milik mereka.
Ini adalah cara sederhana untuk melarikan diri. https://t.co/MzlHJBKSuQ— ꧁Terence Eden꧂ ⏻ (@edent) September 25, 2017
✅ Bagaimana cara menonaktifkan AMP yang mengganggu sebagai pengguna? 🤔
Gunakan browser Firefox dan jangan gunakan browser seluler Google Chrome.
✅ Bagaimana cara mencegah menampilkan 404 kesalahan untuk halaman AMP di Google SERP?
Anda mungkin melakukan kesalahan dengan hanya menonaktifkan plugin dengan harapan AMP tidak akan muncul di Google. Itu bukan cara yang tepat. Anda perlu menghapus tag amphtml dari kode sumber dan noindex halaman AMP.
✅ Apa saja alasan utama yang harus saya hindari menggunakan Google AMP?
AMP menghancurkan desain halaman web. Ini meningkatkan pekerjaan ekstra yang dapat Anda investasikan dengan lebih baik dalam hal-hal produktif lainnya seperti menulis artikel dan menghasilkan uang.
✅ Apakah AMP meningkatkan PageSpeed? 🚀
Lebih baik membuat halaman yang benar-benar lebih cepat daripada mengandalkan beberapa plugin karena dapat memiliki bug dan masalah keamanan.
✅ Apakah AMP merupakan Faktor Peringkat Google? 📈
Nah, tugas utama Google adalah menampilkan jawaban yang relevan untuk permintaan pencarian. Entah Anda menggunakan AMP atau tidak, itu tidak masalah. John dari Google telah secara resmi mengkonfirmasi bahwa hal ini bukanlah faktor peringkat.
✅ Berapa lama waktu yang dibutuhkan Google untuk noindexing semua halaman AMP?
Mungkin perlu beberapa minggu untuk memproses permintaan noindex.
Enjoyed reading the article above, really explains everything in detail, and the article is very interesting and effective. Thank you and good luck with the upcoming articles
Thanks for your kind feedback.
Hello sir 🙏
Sir AMP Disable karne ke process me sirf 3 post aur 4 pages deindex nahi ho rahe to kya kare
Please reply
Keep patience.
Hello🙏 sir
Sir Maine 18 March ko AMP Disable karne k liye no index ka process kiya tha. Ajj 21 March ko maine Google search console me AMP pages check kiye usme 7-8 page abhi bhi index ho rahe hai.
Lekin maine jab Google AMP testing tool me apni sit ko check kiya to usme AMP invalid dikha raha hai to bhai kya ham redirection wale process karne k liye tyar hai.
Please keep patience for few days and ignore errors.
Thanks for the valuable tips. Followed the steps under “Recommended method for AMP for WP Users”. Now no AMP indexed pages on Search Console (it took 3 weeks to go them away). But on Google searches some AMP pages appear. Example:
https://example.com › blog1 › amp › page
What to do next?
You can wait a few more weeks to let AMP pages completely disappear from the SERPs.
Thanks this has been a very helpful guide! I disabled AMP and found that I lost traffic because I no longer appeared on google Discover. Turns out this was feeding me about 15-20% of my traffic. However, leaving AMP has increased my ad earnings quite substantially so I think I am ahead from an earnings POV. However, I really wish there was a way to enable AMP specifically to appear on Google Discover. Any suggestions?
Thank you so much for this article! easy to read and understand for average webmaster. This really help me when I want to remove this AMP headache.
Okay, maybe not such a bad article… But too technical. I’m going to message you if I have questions.
I will try to keep it simple as possible as. Thanks for your feedback.
This article is totally confusing. You need to elaborate; you need to explain more. You understand what needs to be done, but you’re explaining it terribly.
Please read article more than once, maybe twice or thrice. I am sure, you will be able to understand.
All steps are clearly written in seperated heading. Feel free to ask if you’ve any specific question. I am always ready to help.
wow you saved me especially i have almost a thousand pages on my website.. thanks so much
Happy to hear your feedback. Thank you!
Hi Gulshan, I’ve tried the tutorial on this post, and it works perfectly.
But i has a little problem: out of 200 AMP pages, there’s still 7 pages that has deindexed yet.
Pic: https://i.ibb.co/w0ngTjT/IMG-20210813-090834.jpg
I’ve waiting for 1 month, but the number still same.
Here is the question.
1. Is this normal?
2. Is it alright if i delete AMP for WP plugin now?
3. Do i need to redirect those 7 pages using Redirection plugin?
I wanna hear your advises.
Hi Alfiant, Please give it sometime. There is no side-affect of leave AMP plugin for a while when noindex is process is underway. Thanks!
I switched my blog for amp few months ago. After a months I deleted plugin without thinking of SEO. It hurt my blog on SERP. Very bad experience. Your detailed post will help people not to take risks as I did with my blog.
Hi Abid, Glad to hear that!
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Hi Gulshan. Great article you have here.
I’ve done removing rel=”amphtml” and add nofollow meta tag.
But i have one doubt. My site is using 404 to 301 plugin, is it alright if i install Redirection plugin right away?
Do these two plugins will conflict with each other or not?
Avoid nofollow, use noindex as per article. Cannot say anything about 404 to 301 that’s a different thing and not recommended.
Waw this is what i need i want remove my AMP page but afraid SEO effect…
But bow im confidence to remove my AMP plugin…
Sorry for my broken English and Thanks
I used amp-wp plugin first but it produced just blank pages and then i switched to amp official plugin. So I donot want to go back to the amp-wp plugin – in this case what is the choice
Hello sir,
In fact I have tried AMP plugin for 2 times, but as it was giving error in Google Search Console. I removed it by deactivating it. But didn’t followed these mentioned steps. Do I have to install it once again. As such I don’t want AMP version of my blog.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Akhilesh,
Thanks for your comment at my Remove AMP article.
May I know, what is the error message in your Search Console? So I can help you out.
Thanks & Regards,
Gulshan
Hi,
There are 3 errors showed in GSC which are being shared respectively-
1. Only amp-boilerplate and amp-custom ‘style’ tags are allowed, and only in the document head.
2. Custom JavaScript is not allowed.
3. Disallowed attribute or attribute value present in HTML tag.
Since I am not too much technically sound about reasons why errors which are being showed in Google Search console are displayed. So I just gets them disabled.
Thanks in advance!
Hey, i tried removing the amp for the site. I noticed that the amp pages are not decreasing in the past few days.
Can you suggest to me what should I do now? It’s been more than a week since i follwed the steps.
You need to wait a few weeks.
One of my teammates by mistake deleted the amp for wp plugin, so should I install and add the code in the header again as we still have 10 pages left to be de-indexed so. Can you suggest to us what we should do now?
You can re-install the AMP for WP plugin.
My Bing impressions are 0 since the time I added the no-index tag. Can you tell me what should I do to get back the impressions and clicks?
Please make sure you’ve added noindex tag as per instructions
Thank you for your post. Are there any other settings in AMP that need to be clicked other than the Dev? For example, I noticed on te Search Result Page in AMP and Category Description are set to ON. Should they be?
You’re welcome! All neccessary settings are present. No additional things required.
Hey, i am stuck in between as I don’t know where I can add the code you provided to add in the CODE SNIPPET plugin. I’ve installed the plugin and can see 5 options: Example HTML shortcode, Example CSS Snippet,Example JavaScript snippet, Order snippets by name , Order snippets by date.
Can you briefly explain where can i add the code?
You can delete previous example code. Just, Add a new snippet.
In HTML section.
Also can you tell me why is the code snippet plugin used?
Can I use redirection in place of that?
Also thankyou for the help 🙂
Not in HTML section. In fact, you can delete all those examples code which comes by default. It is just a demo by Code Snippet. Not useful.
For noindexing AMP pages, you can place code snippet this way – https://i.imgur.com/RSCgjj9.png
I do not suggest redirection. You can do [only] once AMP pages are gone.
Thanks. So, should I delete the redirection plugin directly?
Also, when can I delete the Code Snippet plugin? after one week or never?
There is no role of Redirection at the moment.
You can delete Code Snippet plugin after deactivating AMP plugin after one week.
Thanks for the help.
I have added the code. Can you tell me what now should I do, I have completed all the steps but can’t see any changes? And can I delete the code snippet plugin when the amp will be completely removed?
Wait a few week.
Hi Gulshan,
Thank you for giving me some solid reasons to remove AMP from my website, which I really wanted to do so.
I’ve removed the AMP from my website successfully without any errors or problems!
Here’s a #tip for others wanting to remove AMP easily:
1. Open the AMP’s Pluging Settings.
2. Switch to Supported Templates tab.
3. Now, uncheck all the “Content types enabled for AMP” options.
3. Hit the save button.
What will happen then?
Unchecking to all will set up a permanent 301 redirect of AMP-enabled pages to Non-AMP pages, and that happens without any errors.
What do next?
Just wait for some days when you find your Search Console shows 0 AMP pages indexed.
Then disable the AMP plugin from your WordPress website.
And that’s all!
I hope this helps you!
Thanks and regards!

Hello Gulshan,
I was using newspaper theme with their inbuilt AMP plugin and mobile theme.
After removing AMP i installed wp for amp and followed both steps
I have enabled “Change End Point to ?amp”
And in advanced settings,entered HTML in Head as you mentioned.
My questions are:
After that do I need to disable amp ads in Adsense?
When should I deactivate amp for wp plugin? after 7 days?
1. To avoid losing Advt revenue, you can keep AMP ads as long AMP for WP plugin is active for the noindex process.
2. Yes, after 7 days or when AMP version page doesn’t appear in the SERPs.
Hi! Thanks for the tutorial!!!
If I follow the new method for AMPfor WP users, should I still redirect from AMP to no-amp after a week?
After a week, you may do redirection if you want. It’s optional.
Thank you for Your Big Support. Nice and Very useful Information.
Happier to don’t use AMP..
Thanks bro..
I also want to remove it from GWM. Its seem Google bot still always crawling on my entire ?amp page..
I hope you followed this step correctly. Google may keep crawling but that’s not an issue. They will eventually figure out right Canonical URL.
Thanks for your help. I am really grateful.
Glad to know, I could help. Thanks! 🙂
I am looking to remove the ampforwp plugin, found this helpful article. Thanks, Gulshan for an informative article. But, here comes the actual issue, I have also found an article from the actual plugin authors at their website to remove their own plugin. The difference is have found is that your article suggests adding the code in the “Enter HTML in Head” section present in the advanced section of the plugin. But the author’s article shows that to add the code in the SEO section present in plugin. Their article does not mention enabling the dev mode. I am a bit confused now on which article to follow. I don’t want to have any issues on removing amp. What do you suggest?
To properly remove AMP,
Day 1
1. You must add suggested noindex meta tag in head. This will hint Google you don’t want to show AMP.
2. Last, we need to
rel="amphtml"markup from head to cut the link of AMP from the non-amp pages. There are many ways to do this. Either enable dev mode, use Real Time Find Replace or snippet. However you do, it’s important.Day 7
3. Now, you should add redirect from AMP to Non-AMP pages. (This is not mandatory, optionally recommended to avoid 404 for the old AMP slug).
Thank you for this. AMP “seemed” like a great idea for a client at first. However, after AMP started to show more than the original page, ad revenues dropped, and this is not ideal. Hopefully, Google figures out another way because this is worse.
I believe AMP version pages will end soon. As many publishers have not felt satisifed with this approach.
This piece of information has helped me alot
Thanks for your kind words.
I tried AMP and it’s waste of time and energy. We should invest more time for that.
Hai Gulshan as per your article I have decided to remove ampforwp so I have done the redirect to deindex the posts, but its more than 15 days still some amp posts are showing up in google search. So how to proceed further can I deactivate the ampforwp plugin.
Avoid redirecting untill post are indexed in SERPs.
Sorry gulshan by mistake I have typed as redirect instead of noindex, its more than 15 days still 10 posts are showing in search console as AMP.
As per your advice I have checked in this format /*/amp with my website, it shows 4 to 5 posts from that only 2 are showing as AMP when I checked that posts it goes to the AMP homepage. Can you please tell me how to proceed further. Thank You
Currently I am still using AMP and I have experienced a bad Speed Index drop in PSI both in page views and in posts.
Unlike the non AMP displays all work fine close to 100%.
I want to ask before releasing the AMP, is there any effect on the PSI speed index on AMP? why did it make such a bad number? and how to optimize it?
If not, in 2021, is AMP still important to use?
It is subjective to each site. Please provide URL for which you need assistance.
Worked for my site, thanks for updating the post, please update the AMP for WP aspect. As of the time of this comment, the AMP for WP plugin developers have made some changes.
Thanks for the article. Is this relevant in 2020 as well.
I think, Yes.
Hi, i amp-ed my site few days ago, but none all of my is index in google page. However, it is still indexed in Google webmaster, showing all the errors.
I have deactivated the amp plugin, will it affect SEO?
Hello!
You may setup a Redirection rule
From
/(.*)/(.*)?amp(.*)To
https://example.com/$1As discussed earlier.
Thanks & Regards,
Gulshan
Hi Gulshan,
I was using amp using newspaper theme’s provided amp support. It created amp pages with /?amp/ url pattern rather than /amp/. I am trying to remove amp now completely. It there any way i can make a 301 redirect using my htaccess to redirect to non amp pages?
Excellent article Gulshan, as ever! Very useful!!
I’ve tried this method and it works quite well I suppose, but it’s been more than 4 days and not all the AMP pages have been deindexed. What do I do? I’m losing on Adsense revenue since AMP decreases my RPM and CPC.
Noindexing AMP can take some time like few weeks. Please keep patience. Thanks
Thanks gulshan bo for this tutorial, really impressed
it was very helpful
my adsense earning was going down from last 3 months
after applying these changes earning has been restored within week
85% bounce rate & 85% exit rate when compared to non-amp pages.
traffic declining gradually.
1st-time enabled traffic lost unusual disabled amp and updates disavow links
for disavowing links traffic decreased by 50% and after amp deactivation traffic went 5% to 50%.
Thanks. Very useful guide.

Hey Gulshan,
Thanks a bunch for the step by step guide, but i think i might need some extra help.
I currently have many canonical pages indexed, and after installing AMP for wordpress, 95 of them are now indexed as AMP pages on only mobile serps.
How do I deindex the amp version only? While keeping the canonical versions indexed?
Here’s how i put myself in this position –
1. Installed Amp for WordPress, not AMP for WP (not sure if this make a difference)
2. After 5 days, now 95 pages on only mobile serps are indexed, which decreased traffic by alot
3. I deactivated and deleted plugin from wordpress without doing much research which was stupid
Then I followed your steps above:
1. Removed rel=”amphtml” using plugin
2. Installed AMP for WP plugin, not the AMP for WordPress plugin which i originally installed (not sure if this makes a difference)
3. Input
Any help is appreciated.
Your last two steps are right. At the place of 3. Input, I would suggest set Noindex using meta tag in the AMP for WP plugin.
Yes, the mobile redirect to AMP must be off.
Thanks for visiting.
Excellent guide,
But should I off mobile redirection to amp in AMPforWP Plugin?
Yes, the mobile redirect to AMP must be off.
Thanks for visiting.
Hi Gulshan,
Thank you very much for making it so simple. I was thinking of removing AMP for a long time but like all, I was afraid of negative SEO effect. I don’t see any negative effect, on contrary, I see the positive effect but due to other factors like topical search increase.
Thanks again.

Sir i have followed this but search console still shows 24 amp pages indexed.
What to do tell me.
Hi, Just now I submitted my AMP sitemap for non-indexing, after following the steps mentioned. Must say, your tutorial is awesome with clear instructions and images to understand it better! Just perfect for non-techies like us.
However, just now I checked the Google search console and found this message : “Your Sitemap appears to be an HTML page. Please use a supported sitemap format instead.”
Now, what it means? And also, Google search console is displaying “Your page is not mobile friendly”
Is it okay?
Please help!
Hello GulshanKumar,
I installed AMP for WP plugin on my site. But still it’s not showing on Google.
Please help.
Googlebot takes time in crawling pages. Please keep patience.
Hi Mika,
Once you know that your pages has been removed from the SERPs, please feel free to delete Real Time Find & Replace & AMP plugin also. 🙂
All the best!
Really thanks to write this posting. It helps to know why my adsense income decrease 90% suddenly after installing amp system.
I would like to know that after all process(including deactivating and deleting AMP for-WP Plugin), is this okay to delete [Real-Time Find and Replace plugin]?
Hi Mika,
Once you know that your pages has been removed from the SERPs, please feel free to delete Real Time Find & Replace & AMP plugin also. 🙂
All the best!
thx bro it is working properly. now i can load my site without any error on google index.
Dear friends, this is a great article, I used to disable one of my sites. Great.
I have a big trouble with another one. The plugin create a technical problem, I can’t access to the plugin panel and clic the tabs (freezing). I sent several emails to the developers but I haven’t any answer (the price to have a free plugin).
I’m wondering If I can delete the plugin, no more options. I’m afraid to loose google ranking (I will start again) and duplicate pages.
What do you think, could you give some ideas? I’m dummy in this field, I’m a single writer.
Thanks a lot, Marcelo
Amazing to hear 🙂
Thank you so much. Wish you all the best!
Hello your article is a lifesaver. Recently I removed amp from a blog and it ended with 404 error (from google amp domain).
But I am using your steps as
1. removing amphtml tag
2. making noindex to ensure google won’t index the amp version.
Let’s see if this works. (I know it will)
Cheers! good work.
Thanks for the post. Great work 🙂
I have a big trouble, before know about this post I had sent an email to the developers of the plugin. Misteriously I can’t clic in any tab to complete the Step 2. The tab (Inn settings) doesnt work, like freeze.
Can you help me please?
Do AdSense has anything related to AMP? If yes, how? I have seen so much shout out om AdSense users getting lesser price of ads
No worries. If you have followed all steps correctly, I am sure everything will go smoothly. All the best!!
I’m so glad in finding this useful content, thanks to the author – I noticed that ever since I activated AMP, my Adsense revenue decreased automatically, I hardly earn 3 dollars a day, I was wondering.
Until I found out it was AMP, but then I was afraid to deactivate it because of 404 error.
I’ve followed the process, by 4 days I will check back and see.
Thanks.
No worries. If you have followed all steps correctly, I am sure everything will go smoothly. All the best!!
After using amp my tablet is showing irresponsive in mobile. How to fix the issue?
Hello, thank you for your great tutorials. I think this is the best article I’ve found so far since I am a beginner.
I noticed that I made a mistake by directly deactiving and removing the plugin without considering your steps above. Will it affect on my website’s performance?
Then how could I fix the errors I found on the Google Console about the AMP errors after I deleted the plugin?
I would be very happy if you are willing to help me.
Thank you 🙂
Thank you so much for this evergreen content. You have saved me the stress of trying to enable Adsense ads and other affiliate ads on my AMP blog. I just finished following the instruction above. Now my only problem is that I didn’t implement the AMP successful so some of my blog posts are not indexed on AMP page but are still ranking high on Google. Hope it won’t affect my traffic after resubmitting my sitemap.
Thanks for posting this excellent tutorial. I followed your instructions and I think I’m heading in the right direction as far as disabling AMP is concerned. I had just 1 AMP page indexed to begin with … it seems like the AMP for WP plugin was generating tons of errors in Search Console all along and for that reason Google could not index any AMP pages.
This is what I had yesterday:
Indexed AMP pages: 1
AMP pages with critical issues: 3152
And today I have:
Indexed AMP pages: 0
AMP pages with critical issues: 1756
I deactivated the AMP for WP plugin after seeing 0 Indexed pages but what concerns me is that in Search Console it is still showing AMP pages with critical issues: 1756. Why do you think that is? If no pages are indexed, It should have been 0 right?
Not sure if I deactivated the plugin too quickly?
Also, after deactivating the plugin when I go to
it takes me to the main page of my website but in the URL bar I can still see
instead of only
?? Why do you think that might be?
This was the case before I set up redirection in my .htaccess following your instructions… and it is still doing the same thing after the redirection code has been implemented …
Do you have any idea why this might be happening?
Thanks again for your thoughts.
Best,
Awsm tips Gulshan!
I applied. But my home page showing ” #wpadminbar { display:none; } ”
Now what?
Thanks Gulshan for this great tutorial !!
Google took 20 days to no-index all my AMP URL’s.
Today I redirected all AMP URL’s to Non-AMP URL’s by following your htaccess method.
They are working fine. Thanks.
Thanks Sir

Is there any trick to optimize live sites images.
Hi Anoop,
To keep image size in the control,
* Do not use many colors
* Choose right format such as PNG for illustration, JPG for real image
* After then, I prefer to compress using ShortPixel or TinyPNG.
I hope this helps.
Thanks
hello sir i have noticed that your blog image is only 13 kb when its size is 713*429. but when i creat a jpg image even 300*200 its is more than 50kb . please give me some tips to reduce image size.
Hi Gulshan, I wish I found this blog post earlier before disabling the amp plugin. I disabled it and let the google bot cache the 404 pages of the non existing amp pages because that is what is suggested by google when I read the in developers.google.com. The problem now is my ranking dropped and googlebot slows down on crawling the site. I reinstalled the amp plugin again to see if the ranking will go back again. Do you think what I did is right? Do you have any tips on how to bring back my ranking? Thanks in advance.
Hi Manny,
I think, Your ranking dropped because you followed a single wrong step which was – removing AMP plugin directly. You could have noindex your AMP pages gracefully. If Google list 10 search results for any query, you remove AMP plugin, what will happen? User will simply land to error 404 page. They will pick another result. Eventually, ranking will drop.
That’s why I say, never ever directly remove plugin or even try to setup any kind of redirect – because it will NOT work.
Instead, focus on noindexing AMP pages properly, if you don’t want to loose ranking and traffics.
What you can do right now? Let me highlight some points
Step 1. Keep installed AMP for WP Plugin, till AMP pages are not noindexed automatically by Google.
Step 2. Set noindex using meta tag in the plugin settings
Step 3. Remove rel=”ampthtml” link as I described above.
Step 4. Wait at least a week. Keep eye on the AMP status via Search Console.
Step 5. Update your site regularly, this will encourage Googlebot to crawl regularly.
Step 6. Once AMP is noindexed, and you don’t see any AMP results for your website in the mobile serps, then feel free to remove AMP plugin, do whatever you want. But, don’t remove AMP without properly noindexing.
Hopefully, you will recover your ranking back.
Thanks & Regards,
Gulshan
Please add this points in your the post, Thanks again for this useful post
Do you think amp increases seo rankings ?? if yes then how ? what is the main use of amp ?
Hey sahil,
AMP provide a light version of your website, as you know loading speed is a very important factor for ranking and because it increases loading speed then surely it will affect your rankings.
P.S. : AMP sites are also given priority by Google.
Thanks.
I’ve send you an email. Please read it. I need your help right now.
Hi,
thanks for your tutorial!
Yesterday I removed AMP completely from my site. To be fair, it brought a lot of traffic, but in the end the monetarization is really bad.
I hope it will not impact my traffic that much, but maybe I’m happier now with my beautiful RESPONSIVE theme.
Hi Gulshan,
Thanks for your informative blog! I have done the steps mentioned above, I’m currently in a waiting game with Google to de-index the AMP pages.
How would I know if all the pages were de-indexed completely? Just webmaster tools? Can I disable the Mobile redirection while waiting for Google to de-index the AMP pages?
Hello,
Yes, you can remove both plugin – AMP and Real time Find and Replace; once AMP pages successfully get Noindexed from the Search Engine.
Later just for normal user, if you wish you can setup redirect from AMP to Non-AMP pages to prevent from simple 404 hits on AMP. It’s not compulsory.
Thanks & Regards,
Gulshan
Hi Bro,
I have done it above section post, and suceesfully done it on my website.
I like to know after Amp pages removed successfully
1) Shall i remove Amp Plugins Completely ?
2) And also shall i remove the Real-Time Find and Replace Plugin also in plugin section ?
Can you clarify the above two doubts bro ?
Thank you
I wasn’t aware of these steps.
I simply deleted and deactivated AMP Plugin. It impacted traffic, but is stable now.
AMP does not look good and as you said it showed a lot of error in search console.

Hello Gulshan,
Thanks for this detailed post. I have also installed the AMP on my blog after reading various articles online. But Its really a hefty job to configure everything especially the error I received in my Google webmasters account. It is so time consuming job. After that I remove the AMP and installed a responsive WordPress themes. Its works great on desktop and mobile devices too. Thanks again for sharing these great insights.
Have a great day 🙂

This is one of the best and most useful tutorials i have read on removing amp. I did not remove amp till date even with its poor performance in ads and earnings because I was afraid of the 404’s it will result in. But with this method I will surely remove it asap. Thanks a lot Gulshan for this brilliant method.
