Is it worth buying links placed in the noindex tag?
In this article we will look at how placing links in the noindex tag affects SEO promotion. One of the subscribers asks the question: “Is it rational to buy links posted in the Miralinks Google directory if they are wrapped in the noindex tag?”
First, you need to figure out what the Miralinks Google directory is. There was once a Google directory that used data from DMOZ, but it was closed. Now we are probably talking about the Miralinks directory, which is used for SEO promotion.
If links in this directory are placed with the noindex tag, then you should understand that such links are not formally visible to the Yandex search engine. This is expected if the noindex tag is applied to only part of the page, rather than the robots="noindex" meta tag, which blocks the entire page from being indexed.
Thus, such links should not work for promotion through Yandex. If you are working on promotion in this search engine, it is not recommended to use such methods. Even if Yandex does process this data, there is a risk that it may ignore these links, which will not benefit your promotion.
If your goal is promotion in Google, then the situation is somewhat different. Google does not honor the noindex tag, but it does recognize the noindex meta tag, which blocks the entire page from being indexed. In the case of the noindex tag, links placed this way will not have a negative impact, since Google does not pay attention to this tag.
If in your case the noindex meta tag is used, then most likely the entire page will not be indexed. Why "most likely"? Sometimes such pages can be indexed, but this happens extremely rarely. In such cases, links within these pages will also not be taken into account by either Yandex or Google.
