Muchos blogs y sitios web que se subieron al carro de Google AMP lo están desactivando ahora por diferentes motivos. Esto se debe a que AMP elimina diferentes elementos de tu sitio web para mejorar la velocidad de carga.
En nuestra experiencia probando páginas AMP, hemos advertido un menor número de conversiones, visitas a la página y participación general. Además, la última versión de Google Analytics no es compatible con Google AMP. Como resultado, no verás ninguna página AMP en WPBeginner.
En este artículo, le mostraremos cómo desactivar correctamente Google AMP en WordPress.
Por qué deberías desactivar Google AMP en WordPress
Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) es una iniciativa de código abierto para hacer la web más rápida para los usuarios móviles y mejorar la experiencia de usuario.
Lo hace sirviendo páginas con un mínimo de HTML y JavaScript. Esto permite que el contenido se aloje en la caché de Google AMP. Google puede entonces servir esta versión en caché a los usuarios de forma instantánea cuando hacen clic en tu enlace en los resultados de búsqueda.
Sin embargo, si ha optado por establecer Google AMP en WordPress, es posible que sienta que ha tomado la decisión equivocada.
No eres el único. Muchos blogueros, influencers y publicaciones online han dejado de usar AMP en sus sitios web de WordPress.
En primer lugar, vamos a repasar por qué puede considerar desactivar AMP en su sitio web de WordPress, y luego le guiaremos a través del proceso.
Google Analytics 4 no es compatible con AMP
Google Analytics 4 o GA4 es la última versión de Google Analytics que realiza el seguimiento de su sitio web y aplicaciones móviles en la misma cuenta. Aporta muchos cambios, como nuevos métodos de seguimiento, características de los informes, métricas e informes.
Entre estos cambios se encuentra que GA4 no es compatible con AMP de forma oficial por el momento, y no se ha confirmado si funcionará en el futuro. Uno de los motivos es que realiza un seguimiento de los visitantes de tu sitio web y de tu aplicación en la misma propiedad.
Sin embargo, Google ha dicho que solo podrás acceder a datos antiguos en la propiedad de Universal Analytics hasta el 1 de julio de 2024. Esto significa que podrás seguir accediendo a los informes de Universal Analytics para ver los datos anteriores, pero aún no podrás realizar su seguimiento en la versión más reciente.
Caída drástica de las tasas de conversión
Google AMP establece muchas restricciones en HTML/JavaScript. Esto significa que muchos elementos interactivos de tu sitio web de WordPress faltan con AMP, como los formularios de suscripción y los mensajes / ventanas emergentes de salida.
Como resultado, los propietarios de sitios no pueden animar a los usuarios a suscribirse, rellenar formularios de contacto o comprar cosas.
Menor número de páginas vistas por usuarios móviles
AMP no muestra las barras laterales de tu sitio web ni otras características de descubrimiento de contenido. Esto provoca un descenso significativo de las páginas vistas por los usuarios móviles.
De hecho, algunos expertos en experiencia de usuario sugieren que el botón de cierre en la parte superior en realidad anima a los usuarios a volver a la búsqueda de Google después de leer su artículo en lugar de navegar por su sitio web.
Menor participación de los usuarios
Muchos sitios web prosperan gracias a las interacciones de los usuarios, como los widgets click-to-tweet, las valoraciones / puntuaciones de los usuarios, los comentarios, etc. Google AMP hace que sea bastante difícil para los propietarios de sitios web mantener la participación de los usuarios e interactuar con su contenido.
¿Debería desactivar Google AMP?
La respuesta a esta pregunta depende de su sitio web. Si los usuarios móviles constituyen la mayor parte de tu audiencia, puede que te interese utilizar AMP.
Por otro lado, si has probado Google AMP y ha afectado negativamente a tus tasas de conversión, entonces probablemente deberías desactivar Google AMP en tu sitio web.
Contrariamente a la creencia popular, Google no penaliza a los sitios web por no utilizar AMP. Aún puedes mejorar la velocidad y el rendimiento de tu sitio web en dispositivos móviles para competir por una audiencia de búsqueda móvil.
Con todo esto en mente, veamos cómo puedes desactivar AMP en tu sitio web WordPress.
Desactivar plugins de Google AMP en WordPress
No todo el mundo utiliza los mismos plugins de WordPress para añadir soporte AMP a sus sitios web. Sin embargo, los ajustes básicos siguen siendo los mismos independientemente del plugin que utilices.
Lo primero que tienes que hacer es desactivar cualquier plugin de AMP que tengas instalado.
Simplemente visite la página Plugins ” Plugins Instalados desde su escritorio de WordPress y haga clic en ‘Desactivar’ debajo del nombre del plugin AMP.
Basta con desactivar el plugin para desactivar el soporte de AMP en tu sitio web. Sin embargo, hay algunos pasos más a seguir para asegurarse de que su sitio está libre de AMP.
Establecer redireccionamientos para páginas AMP
Al desactivar el plugin de AMP se eliminará la versión AMP de tus artículos del sitio web. Sin embargo, eso solo no es suficiente, especialmente si tienes AMP activado durante más de una semana.
Es muy probable que Google ya tenga indexadas esas páginas y siga mostrándolas en los resultados de búsqueda. Si un usuario hace clic en una de ellas y usted la ha quitado de su sitio, se encontrará con una página 404, ya que ahora falta ese contenido.
Para corregir este problema, debe redirigir a los usuarios que llegan a las páginas AMP a las páginas normales que no son AMP.
Te mostraremos dos métodos diferentes para establecer redirecciones para Google AMP, primero usando un plugin y luego usando código. Puedes elegir el que más te convenga.
Método 1: Utilizar un plugin de redireccionamiento
La forma más sencilla de establecer redirecciones en WordPress es utilizando el plugin All in One SEO (AIOSEO). Es el mejor plugin SEO para WordPress que ofrece una potente gestión de redirecciones.
Tenga en cuenta que necesitará la licencia AIOSEO Pro porque incluye el gestor de redirecciones.
En primer lugar, deberá instalar y activar el plugin All in One SEO (AIOSEO). Para más detalles, consulta nuestra guía paso a paso sobre cómo instalar un plugin de WordPress.
Una vez activado, puede ir a All in One SEO ” Redirecciones desde el escritorio de WordPress y hacer clic en el botón ‘Activar redirecciones’.
Esto le ayudará a instalar la extensión AIOSEO Redirection Manager que gestiona esta característica. Una vez activado, accederá a la pestaña “Redirecciones”. Aquí puede introducir las URL de origen y destino para establecer la redirección.
En primer lugar, deberá hacer clic en el icono “Engranaje” del campo URL de origen y, a continuación, activar la casilla de verificación “Regex”.
A continuación, puede añadir el siguiente código en el campo Source URL:
^/(.*)\/amp
En el campo URL de destino, debe añadir la URL de su sitio web con el siguiente formato:
https://example.com/$1
No olvide sustituir “ejemplo.com” por su propio nombre de dominio.
A continuación, puede mantener el ‘Tipo de redirección’ como 301 Movido permanentemente. De esta forma, sus usuarios serán redirigidos permanentemente a las páginas no AMP.
Por último, haga clic en el botón “Añadir redirección” para guardar los cambios.
Ahora puedes visitar la URL de una antigua página AMP de tu sitio web para comprobar si la redirección funciona correctamente.
AIOSEO también le ayuda a realizar un seguimiento de los enlaces rotos de su sitio web. Puedes identificar rápidamente las páginas AMP que dan lugar a errores 404 y redirigirlas. Para obtener más información, consulta nuestra guía sobre cómo realizar un seguimiento de las páginas 404 y redirigirlas en WordPress.
Método 2: Establecer manualmente las redirecciones en .htaccess
Si no desea utilizar un plugin para establecer las redirecciones, puede configurarlas utilizando el archivo .htaccess de su cuenta de alojamiento de WordPress.
En primer lugar, deberá conectarse a su sitio web mediante un cliente FTP o el gestor de archivos de cPanel. Para más detalles, consulte nuestra guía sobre cómo utilizar FTP para subir archivos en WordPress.
Una vez conectado, deberá localizar el archivo .htaccess en la carpeta raíz de su sitio web.
A continuación, puede editar el archivo en su carpeta raíz.
A continuación, sólo tiene que añadir el siguiente código en la parte inferior de su archivo .htaccess:
// Redirect AMP to non-AMP
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/amp(.*)$
RewriteRule ^ %1/ [R=301,L]
No olvide guardar los cambios y volver a subir el archivo a su servidor.
Ahora puedes visitar la URL de la antigua versión AMP de cualquier entrada de tu sitio web para asegurarte de que la redirección funciona correctamente.

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
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
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
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
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.

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.

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
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.

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
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.

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
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
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

Hi,
Can you tell me, when we can remove the redirection plugin. Does google remove the amp pages automatically after some time?
WPBeginner Support
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.
Administrador
Pratik Bhatt
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
Eventually yes

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
You would need to clear any caching as the most common reason it would still be showing up.

my website is https so i made it as https that what it should be ? Thanks in advance

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.

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!!!

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!
