It is important sometimes to hide pages from search engines. Specially for policy pages many people prefer to hide it from search engines.
First, let's take a look how we can hide a single Shopify page from search engines:
From your Shopify admin go to:
Online Store > Theme: Actions > Edit Code:
Search for "theme.liquid"
After the starting of <head> tag (Or before the closing of <head> tag) type in:
{% if handle contains 'your-page-handle' %}
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
{% endif %}
replace 'your-page-handle' with your desired page handle. That's it done.
Now, let's take a look how we can do it for multiple pages:
From your Shopify admin go to:
Online Store > Theme: Actions > Edit Code:
Search for "theme.liquid"
After the starting of <head> tag (Or before the closing of <head> tag) type in:
{% if handle contains 'your-page-handle-1' %}
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
{% elsif handle contains 'your-page-handle-2' %}
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
{% elsif handle contains 'your-page-handle-3' %}
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
{% else %}
<meta name="robots" content="index">
{% endif %}
replace 'your-page-handle 1,2,3' with your desired page handles.
You get the idea now. All set.
