Pages are no longer automatically available to search engines when adding a domain

Changelog

Since we first built Sorry™ we have automatically toggled status pages to make them available to search engines as soon as you add a custom domain.

As time has passed this no longer feels like the right approach.

From today we will no longer change your status pages visibly to search engines when you add or remove a custom domain, you can instead control this setting yourself from the "Search & SEO" option in the cog menu.

This will not impact any existing pages and domains, only those created moving forward.
