Enabling SEO and Indexing

How to enable SEO indexing for your Turtl Docs

Turtl Docs can be indexed by all major search engines and form a complementary part of your content strategy when used alongside blogs, web pages, and so on.
​

H1, H2, and H3 tags are on every Turtl page. The top H1 tag is the title you give the Turtl Doc, and H2 is the subheading. The other H2 and H3 tags are the Content page heading and the subheading of each section.
​

When publishing your Doc it will have indexing for search engines disabled by default. You can turn indexing on in the Doc Settings.
​
To do so follow these steps: 

  • Navigate to the settings of your chosen Turtl Doc:

    ​

  • Go to the "Access control" tab, which lets you change who can read your Turtl Doc. If your Doc is set to "Public on the web", Google will automatically index it. Choose any other option and Google will not index the Doc. 

Reach out to us at support@turtl.co if you have any other questions.

How indexing is controlled

You control indexing with the access setting in your Doc settings. Based on that setting, Turtl adds a robots meta tag to the page HTML and an X-Robots-Tag header to the response.
