How to exclude pages from a website

Once you’ve added a website, you can choose to exclude pages from it. For example, if you tested example.com, you might want to exclude pages inside part of that website, like say example.com/archive.

  1. Viewing the website you want to change
  2. Click Settings in the top right corner (you need to have permission to see this)
  3. Inside the Denied URLs box enter any web addresses you want to exclude

Any URLs you enter are excluded any URL that match the start of. So if you exclude say https://example.com/archive, you would also have excluded these:

https://example.com/archive
https://example.com/archive/another
https://example.com/archive/and/another/example

Note that URLs must be fully qualified, i.e. they must start with http:// or https://. Note also that if you exclude one of these that the other will not be excluded, e.g. if you exclude https://example.com/archive that will not exclude http://example.com/archive (the same address but with “http” instead of “https”).
