From this example, we can draw three conclusions :

PDFs rank well .
Poor website programming can lead to a decrease in sales .
You have to be careful with tools that track positions : if we don't check which URL is registering, we might think we're on the right track when in reality we're throwing money away.
It's not all about Big Data when it comes to blocking PDF indexing
With Search Console we can obtain a lot of information. Within “Search traffic”, in “Search analytics” we can filter pages that contain PDFs in their URLs: this way we will have an idea peru mobile database of the traffic that reaches the PDF pages from the search engine . Here we must check if we want to block all PDFs or if we are interested in indexing some: for example, in the case of the course seller, a free sample can be provided; a summary or an introduction.

Software ping pong: how to prevent PDF files from being indexed
To prevent PDF files (or any other page on a website) from being indexed, Google provides several methods :

A robots no index meta tag located in the <head> section of the site's html code:
<meta name=”robots” content=”noindex”>

If we do not have access to the server, we can almost always apply it from the CMS that manages the site: this is clearly an advantage. The problem is that it does not work for PDFs because they do not have HTML code .

Removing URLs in Search Console – This method partially fixes the problem, but we do not recommend it to fix the root problem.
