Google just released a new robots tagged called indexifembedded that provides more control over when content is indexed.
With this new robots tag, you are able to tell Google that you would like the content to be indexed when it’s embedded through an iframe and other similar HTML tags in other pages. This is even when the content page with the embed has a noindex tag.
This new robots tag was released to address a common issue that affects media publishers. This is in instances when the publishers want their content indexed when it’s embedded on third-party pages, but then they do not want their media pages indexed on their own.
Currently, the noindex tag is used in such pages where they don’t want the media pages indexed. The problem with this is that the noindex tag also prevents embedding the content in other pages during indexing.
According to the Google Search Central Blog:
The new robots tag,
indexifembedded, works in combination with thenoindextag only when the page withnoindexis embedded into another page through aniframeor similar HTML tag, likeobject.For example, if
podcast.host.example/playpage?podcast=12345has both thenoindexandindexifembeddedtag, it means Google can embed the content hosted on that page inrecipe.site.example/my-recipes.htmlduring indexing.
The indexifembedded is used in combination with the noindex tag and is added in the robots.txt file. Alternatively, you can also specify the tag in the HTTP header.
As of this time, only Google supports the indexifembedded tag.
