    I change my homepage title to something like this: BBB – AAA
    but what yoast is showing is: AAA: BBB
    and i have no “Force” option in my yoast plugin cause my theme is not old.

    Hello Again!
    just want to say as i read some of yoast website article, i’m now ok with this kind of page title format!

    but i have another question now.
    we have an ecommerce website that right now we have only ONE kind of product ( lots of different SHOES )
    But we have a plan to grow our bussines in the future and add more kind of product ( bag, watch and … )
    i set my shop permalink to something like this: https://www.site.com/shop/shoe/brand-name/product-name
    i know this permalink format is not correct with a ecommerce with only ONE kind of product, but i choose this format only to support my future plan ( adding more products )
    now, i WANT my HOMEPAGE to RANK for shoe searches and NOT SHOE CATEGORY PAGE ( this page: https://www.site.com/shop/shoe/ )

    1. is it ok to noindex shoe category page? until we add more products and then re-index it …

    2. is there any need to no-index shop page too? ( https://www.site.com/shop/ )

    3. i want my sub-categories (brand-pages) to index and rank in google. is noindex parent category affect sub categories?!

    i really need your help. i’m so much worry about this problem ?? thanks

    Hi @kentivuc,

    Thanks for your comments. We’d prefer to address your questions through the Yoast support channels. That being said, we’ve responded to them below to save you time.

    1. Product categories play an important role in SEO as they prevent individual products from competing. We’d recommend you index and optimize your product category page even if you only have one type of product. Please, refer to this post for more information about categories: https://yoast.com/category-seo/
    2. If your shop page displays very similar content to other pages on your website (i.e. your product category page), you may consider no-indexing it. You can set it to index at a later time when you have more type of products.
    3. The indexability of parent and child categories is handled independently in Yoast SEO, so you can set the parent category to noindex and the child categories to index.
