Use this option to add any URL’s not to add from alternative home pages to privacy statements etc which often get added to XML site maps during the crawl.
Rules & Format
Enter URLs separated by comma or new line
http://www.mysite.com/directory/ – to exclude exact URL
http://www.mysite.com/directory/% – to exclude full directory
Note: This does not stop them from being imported into the database – they will not be added to the final XML export. Also, if they have a robots block they will also show up on the error report.
Recommendation:
Any URL’s that you are excluding in this feature should be removed from your XML site map or URL import source. This feature is not designed to be a long-term fix.
