Removing AMP from webshop

by @jaap (1667), 1 year ago

A shop installed AMP. I see the mobile conversion going down, more than 15%

So the owner wants to get it removed. However the pages are indexed well in Google.

Is the best solution to redirect every AMP page to the original one in .htaccess? Or is there a better solution?

The structure of the URL is like: index.php?route=product/amp_product&product_id=230 index.php?route=product/amp_product&product_id=231 index.php?route=product/amp_product&product_id=232

So redirecting complete maps isn't possible.

Already read : kinsta.com/blog/disable-google-amp/ but it's about Wordpress.

Help appreciated!

Super, al amp pages are redirect to the original ones with 301 In .htaccess with

RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/amp(.*)$ 
RewriteRule ^ %1/ [R=301,L]

Will wait till all is indexed before deleting the amp module.

Thanks for the info!

Have You disabled the amp? just ensure to check all amp url is redirected to the correct url already to avoid 404.

No, I'll wait some weeks to disable AMP. First all 301 redirects should be indexed properly.
