How to Get Rid of Dates Shown In Google Search Results
-
When I enter "Site: URL" to check what a search how Google displays search result, a date appears at the very front. This takes away several characters, really valuable real estate.
How can I stop Google from displaying these dates?
There are certain Wordpress plugins like "WP Date Remover" however the seem to only apply to blog posts. Dates are appearing on results on all my Wordpress pages. Is there an internal setting in Wordpress that will allow me to remove dates for these non blogpost pages?

Hi Kingalan,
This tutorial might help you.
It worked smoothly for me. Hope it works for you too. Good luck!Mª Verónica
Ps: In case you are using the Yoast plugin, there is an option into the set up for display or not the dates.
