Did you know that you can monitor what query strings are being used on your site? All in One SEO makes it easy to see what’s being used and block query strings you don’t want crawled by search engines.

To get enable Query Arg Monitoring, click on Search Appearance in the All in One SEO menu and then click on the Advanced tab.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and enable the toggle for Query Arg Monitoring, then click the Save Changes button.

The only setting in Query Arg Monitoring is the Log Retention setting. Click on the drop down to change the length of time that logs are kept for.

IMPORTANT:
Logs are stored in the WordPress database in a table called _aioseo_crawl_cleanup_logs.

If you change the log retention, this table could fill up very fast. It’s strongly recommended monitoring this closely to ensure that the table doesn’t fill up and have a negative affect on your WordPress database and site.

In this section, you will see a table showing a log of all query strings that have been used on your site. Above this table is a form where you can enter a query arg you want to block

When someone or something (such as a crawler or robot) use a query arg on your site, it will appear in the log as shown below:

You can select to block a query arg in the table. You have option for blocking the key or the key and value.

If you choose to block the key, it will block that key and any value for that key.

If you choose to block the key and value, it will only block that key when the specified value is present.

You can also choose Bulk Actions to block or delete entries.

You can use the form above the log table to enter any key and/or value. You can even use Regex to block keys.

And that's it!
