Volete disabilitare Google AMP sul vostro sito WordPress?
Molti blogger e siti web che sono saliti sul carro di Google AMP lo stanno ora disattivando per diversi motivi. Le pagine AMP hanno conversioni, visualizzazioni di pagine e coinvolgimento generale inferiori. Inoltre, l’ultima versione di Google Analytics non supporta Google AMP.
In questo articolo vi mostreremo come disabilitare correttamente Google AMP in WordPress.
Perché si dovrebbe disabilitare Google AMP in WordPress
Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) è un’iniziativa open-source per rendere il web più veloce per gli utenti mobili e migliorare l’esperienza dell’utente.
Lo fa servendo pagine con HTML e JavaScript ridotti al minimo. Ciò consente al contenuto di essere ospitato nella cache di Google AMP. Google può quindi servire questa versione memorizzata nella cache agli utenti quando fanno clic sul vostro link nei risultati di ricerca.
Tuttavia, se avete scelto di impostare Google AMP in WordPress, potreste pensare di aver fatto la scelta sbagliata.
Non siete soli. Molti proprietari di siti web, influencer e pubblicazioni online hanno smesso di utilizzare AMP sui loro blog WordPress.
In primo luogo, esamineremo i motivi per cui potreste prendere in considerazione la disattivazione di AMP sul vostro sito web WordPress e poi vi illustreremo la procedura da seguire.
Google Analytics 4 non supporta AMP
Google Analytics 4 o GA4 è l’ultima versione di Google Analytics che tiene traccia del vostro sito web e delle applicazioni mobili nello stesso account. Apporta numerosi cambiamenti, tra cui nuovi metodi di tracciamento, funzioni di reporting, metriche e rapporti.
Tra questi cambiamenti c’è il fatto che GA4 non supporta ufficialmente AMP al momento e non è confermato se funzionerà in futuro. Uno dei motivi è che tiene traccia dei visitatori del sito web e dell’app nella stessa proprietà.
Tuttavia, Google ha dichiarato che sarà possibile accedere ai vecchi dati nella proprietà Universal Analytics solo fino al 1° luglio 2024. Ciò significa che è ancora possibile accedere ai rapporti di Universal Analytics per visualizzare i dati passati, ma non sarà ancora possibile tracciarli nella versione più recente.
Drastico calo dei tassi di conversione
Google AMP impone molte restrizioni su HTML/JavaScript. Ciò significa che molti elementi interattivi del vostro sito web WordPress vengono a mancare con AMP, come i moduli optin e i popup di uscita.
Di conseguenza, i proprietari dei siti non possono incoraggiare gli utenti a iscriversi, a compilare i moduli di contatto o ad acquistare prodotti.
Minori visualizzazioni di pagine da parte degli utenti mobili
AMP non mostra le barre laterali del sito o altre funzioni di scoperta dei contenuti. Ciò provoca un calo significativo delle pagine viste dagli utenti mobili.
In effetti, alcuni esperti di esperienza utente suggeriscono che il pulsante di chiusura in alto incoraggia gli utenti a tornare alla ricerca di Google dopo aver letto il vostro articolo, invece di navigare nel vostro sito web.
Minore coinvolgimento degli utenti
Molti siti web si basano sulle interazioni con gli utenti, come i widget click-to-tweet, le valutazioni degli utenti, i commenti e così via. Google AMP rende piuttosto difficile per i proprietari di siti web mantenere gli utenti impegnati e interagire con i loro contenuti.
Dovreste disattivare Google AMP?
La risposta a questa domanda dipende dal vostro sito web. Se gli utenti mobili costituiscono la maggior parte del vostro pubblico, potreste comunque voler utilizzare AMP.
D’altra parte, se avete provato Google AMP e ha influito negativamente sui vostri tassi di conversione, probabilmente dovreste disabilitare Google AMP sul vostro sito web.
Contrariamente a quanto si crede, Google non penalizza i siti web che non utilizzano AMP. Potete comunque migliorare la velocità e le prestazioni del vostro sito web su mobile per competere con il pubblico della ricerca mobile.
Tenendo presente tutto ciò, vediamo come disabilitare AMP sul vostro sito WordPress.
Disabilitare i plugin di Google AMP in WordPress
Non tutti utilizzano gli stessi plugin di WordPress per aggiungere il supporto AMP ai propri siti web. Tuttavia, le impostazioni di base rimangono le stesse indipendentemente dal plugin utilizzato.
La prima cosa da fare è disattivare il plugin AMP installato.
È sufficiente visitare la pagina Plugin ” Plugin installati dalla dashboard di WordPress e fare clic su “Disattiva” sotto il nome del plugin AMP.
La semplice disattivazione del plugin disabilita il supporto AMP sul vostro sito web. Tuttavia, ci sono altri passaggi da seguire per garantire che il vostro sito sia privo di AMP.
Impostazione dei reindirizzamenti per le pagine AMP
La disattivazione del plugin AMP rimuove la versione AMP degli articoli dal sito web. Tuttavia, questo da solo non è sufficiente, soprattutto se AMP è attivo da più di una settimana.
È molto probabile che Google abbia già indicizzato quelle pagine e continui a mostrarle nei risultati di ricerca. Se un utente fa clic su una di esse e voi l’avete rimossa dal vostro sito, troverà una pagina 404, poiché quel contenuto è ormai scomparso.
Per risolvere questo problema, è necessario reindirizzare gli utenti che arrivano alle pagine AMP alle normali pagine non AMP.
Vi mostreremo due metodi diversi per impostare i reindirizzamenti per Google AMP, prima usando un plugin e poi usando il codice. Potete scegliere quello più conveniente per voi.
Metodo 1: Utilizzo di un plugin di reindirizzamento
Il modo più semplice per impostare il reindirizzamento in WordPress è utilizzare il plugin All in One SEO (AIOSEO). È il miglior plugin SEO per WordPress che offre un potente gestore di reindirizzamenti.
È necessario disporre della licenza AIOSEO Pro, che include il gestore di reindirizzamento.
Innanzitutto, è necessario installare e attivare il plugin All in One SEO (AIOSEO). Per maggiori dettagli, consultate la nostra guida passo passo su come installare un plugin di WordPress.
Dopo l’attivazione, potete andare su All in One SEO ” Reindirizzamenti dalla dashboard di WordPress e fare clic sul pulsante “Attiva reindirizzamenti”.
Questo vi aiuterà a installare il componente aggiuntivo AIOSEO Redirection Manager che gestisce questa funzione. Dopo l’attivazione, si accede alla scheda “Reindirizzamenti”. Qui è possibile inserire gli URL di origine e di destinazione per impostare il reindirizzamento.
Per prima cosa, è necessario fare clic sull’icona “ingranaggio” nel campo URL sorgente e poi attivare la casella di controllo “Regex”.
Successivamente, è possibile aggiungere il seguente codice nel campo URL sorgente:
^/(.*)\/amp
Nel campo URL di destinazione, è necessario aggiungere l’URL del sito web nel formato seguente:
https://example.com/$1
Non dimenticate di sostituire “example.com” con il vostro nome di dominio.
Successivamente, è possibile mantenere il “Tipo di reindirizzamento” come 301 spostato in modo permanente. In questo modo, gli utenti saranno reindirizzati in modo permanente alle pagine nonAMP.
Infine, fare clic sul pulsante “Aggiungi reindirizzamento” per salvare le modifiche.
È ora possibile visitare l’URL di una precedente pagina AMP del proprio sito web per verificare se il reindirizzamento funziona correttamente.
AIOSEO vi aiuta anche a tenere traccia dei link interrotti sul vostro sito web. È possibile identificare rapidamente le pagine AMP che causano errori 404 e reindirizzarle. Per maggiori dettagli, consultate la nostra guida su come monitorare le pagine 404 e reindirizzarle in WordPress.
Metodo 2: Impostare manualmente i reindirizzamenti in .htaccess
Se non volete usare un plugin per impostare i reindirizzamenti, potete configurare il reindirizzamento usando il file .htaccess sul vostro account di hosting WordPress.
Per prima cosa, dovrete collegarvi al vostro sito web utilizzando un client FTP o il File Manager di cPanel. Per maggiori dettagli, consultate la nostra guida su come usare FTP per caricare file in WordPress.
Una volta collegati, è necessario individuare il file .htaccess nella cartella principale del sito web.
Successivamente, è possibile modificare il file nella cartella principale.
Aggiungete quindi il seguente codice in fondo al vostro file .htaccess:
// Redirect AMP to non-AMP
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/amp(.*)$
RewriteRule ^ %1/ [R=301,L]
Non dimenticate di salvare le modifiche e di caricare il file sul vostro server.
È ora possibile visitare l’URL della precedente versione AMP di qualsiasi post sul proprio sito web per verificare che il reindirizzamento funzioni come previsto.
Speriamo che questo articolo vi abbia aiutato a disabilitare correttamente Google AMP in WordPress. Potreste anche voler consultare la nostra guida definitiva alla SEO di WordPress passo dopo passo per i principianti e i migliori consigli per velocizzare WordPress.

Hi,
Tried adding :
// Redirect AMP to non-AMP
RewriteEngine Aan
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/amp(.*)$
RewriteRule ^ %1/ [R=301,L]
But still lots of 404’s looking for AMP?
WPBeginner Support says
We would recommend checking with your hosting provider as some have settings that need to be applied for redirects to work.

After following all the steps, now I’m getting this error “Discovered – Currently not Indexed” for my non-amp pages.
Loren says
I’ve tried applying this to a site I’m working on without any luck. I’ve cleared cache and tried a handful of other things, but the redirects do not seem to be catching. Does this work for sites that google is wrapping the url in themselves?
Scott Hunt says
I installed the Redirection Plugin and followed the process. Amp was only Active on our mobile version and only showed if our website was searched, for example, Delta, and then clicked on the link. If you entered the URL in the address bar it would show our website correctly. I am at a loss!
I know it was amp because Amp is the in URL when the website is not displayed correctly. Any advice would be sincerely appreciated.
WPBeginner Support says
You would want to ensure you clear any caching you have on your site as that could be showing the cached version of the page on your site instead of the updated version.

I did it and it works thanks.. I was in a panic. Just one thing – a little sad looking emoji guy pops up and says ‘404 that’s an error’ just before the user is directed to the correct page. It pops up for a minute then goes away. How can I get rid of him?
WPBeginner Support says
You may either need to clear your browser cache or check with your hosting provider to ensure there isn’t something causing issues with your redirects.

That’s great info and help guys. Thanks a lot. Here’s my question:
What is the right direction code or way for redirect my old website’s amp pages to my new domain’s non-amp pages?

Can I delete the Redirect plugin when all the amp pages are deindexed from Google?

Thanks for the wonderful article. I wonder how one can remove just a single page from amp. Your method only explains removing all amp pages of a website but I want to remove just one page. How can I remove it please help.
WPBeginner Support says
You would want to check with the plugin’s support for if that is currently an option. Normally, you should see an option on the page/post itself to not use AMP.
Admin
Laura says
This is super easy to follow, so I’m so grateful to have found this post – but my AMP pages are still showing on Google, even after doing the redirection using the Redirection plugin. I’m not sure what to do, I saw in the comments something about caching, but I’m not sure how to do this?
WPBeginner Support says
For Google’s cache, you would need to have Google recrawl your site with its URL checker or wait for Google to notice the update and change your links.
Admin
Adeel Qadir says

WPBeginner Support says
You would need to have Google recrawl your site to start removing the content from Google’s search results.

I have disabled AMP on my site using the mentioned codes. But the post/page previews are showing in AMP mode. What to do? Using TagDiv NewsPaper theme.
WPBeginner Support says
You would want to ensure you’ve cleared all of your caching for the most common reason for that.
Admin
Adnan says
Yours AMP pages are in Google cache, so when Google Bot re-index and check no rel=”amphtml” tag they index non-AMP page.
Julia says
Hi, this article sounds very useful, thanks for sharing!
Before I will deactivate/uninstall AMP plugin as well, I have to ask a question.
I have, by mistake, redirected few of amp links (with amp plugin already installed) to my normal url link:
example.com/amp to example.com
The reason why I did that redirect with redirection plugin, is that I had no knowledge of what amp is, and so I thought it’s an error, when I was migrating my site.
Now my question is, should I rather disable all my redirects with amp and then disable/uninstall the AMP plugin and then do the bulk redirect ?
Thank you for your help!
WPBeginner Support says
To be safe you may want to create an export of your current redirects, remove them, then do the method in this article to prevent the possibility of multiple redirects
Admin
Pratik Bhatt says
Hi,
Can you tell me, when we can remove the redirection plugin. Does google remove the amp pages automatically after some time?
WPBeginner Support says
Once the amp pages are no longer being indexed you can remove the redirection. It takes time and Google recrawling your site for the links to be removed.
Admin
Pratik Bhatt says
Thanks for the quicky reply.
One more question, I’ve to ask, If I don’t do the redirection, then still google remove the amp pages after some time?
Thanks.
WPBeginner Support says
Eventually yes
sam says
Hi
I followed the steps above. However, when searching on my mobile device the amp pages are still popping up (It’s only been a few hours so this may be why). When I search on desktop device and type in domain.com/amp the redirect works perfectly. Do you know why this is happening?
WPBeginner Support says
You would need to clear any caching as the most common reason it would still be showing up.

Can I disable redirection plugin after AMP completely gone from Google search result? Please help.
WPBeginner Support says
If you would like you can. Be warned that would remove the redirects so if the links start appearing as broken links in your search console you may need to readd the redirects.
Admin
Enes says
Hey. Thank you very much for the info but i had a question. It does not work with me method 1. it suppose to be non amp as soon as i do redirect right ?
my website is https so i made it as https that what it should be ? Thanks in advance
WPBeginner Support says
If you are using https then you would want the second field as https, as long as you don’t have caching then it should automatically update. If not, you would want to reach out to the plugin’s support for them to take a look.
Admin
Suanlian Tangpua says
When should I remove the redirection?
WPBeginner Support says
As it would depend on if Google still links to your AMP pages, we don’t have a set time to remove it we would recommend at the moment.

If you removed AMP completely and clearing your cache did not remove the AMP versions you may want to check with your hosting provider to ensure they don’t have caching or similar that would be affecting the AMP pages.

Hi I disabled the AMP plugin and set up a redirect as per the article. The redirect works, but the AMP pages are still in google index and working. How long until google replaces them with my non amp pages. Please let me know how long it takes organically vs anything I can do to speed this up that is proven to work. Thankyou!
Aaron Hunter says
This helped so much thank you! I’ve asked WP support, and they had nothing to offer me for a solution. The new version of WordPress.com doesn’t let you deactivate AMP so I used the Redirection plugin. Thank you again!!!
Keith Whitworth says
You are an absolute lifesaver! After implementing AMP, my user engagement dropped significantly, my site links in Google totally disappeared, my ranking (for my niche) was at the bottom of the barrel.
AMP is not really designed for podcasts AT ALL.
Once I decided it wasn’t going to work out, I deleted the plugin only to generate thousands of 404 errors related to AMP. I found myself creating unnecessary laborious work creating redirects every day as they popped up.
Finally, I got frustrated and performed a search and replace in my database to remove amp/ which was a massive mistake. Suddenly my site was no longer available. I deleted the plugin and everything was restored but what to do about all the 404 errors related to AMP?
I ran across your website through a Google search and presto. In one fell swoop, all my headaches disappeared. My sitelinks have been restored and yesterday I received an email from Google stating that mobile-first indexing was enabled on my site.
I cannot thank you enough!
