Google returns deprecated & empty API doc pages
The old API doc pages still rank highly on google search results
Most of these pages are now empty, so we should look into how we can either:
- automatically redirecting the user to the appropriate page containing the new docs
- delist or downrank the deprecated & empty doc pages from google search results
Potential ways to achieve this:
- Submitting a new sitemap via the Google Search Console
- Implement HTTP 301 redirects on the old documentation pages that will redirect the user to the appropriate page for the new documentation
Hey @exitcode0 , thanks for bringing this to our attention. We have some plans in the works to make this more user-friendly, and we've filed an internal ticket for us to look into this more.
