TL;DR
The URL Parameter Tool in Search Console does not fully block crawling. Google may still explore certain URLs to ensure the relevance of the parameters. Don't blindly rely on this tool to manage indexing.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Google crawle-t-il encore les URLs avec paramètres après en avoir réglé l'outil ?
Oui, l'outil ne garantit pas un blocage total du crawl. Google vérifie encore parfois ces URLs.
Comment puis-je bloquer totalement une URL ?
Utilisez des directives "noindex" et bloquez l'URL via le fichier robots.txt.
Les paramètres d'URL influent-ils sur le SEO ?
Oui, surtout s'ils génèrent un contenu dupliqué. Le crawl inopiné peut gaspiller le budget de crawl.
