How to block Sitelinks for your own site



Site links make available helpful and constructive information of inner pages or different pages of a website. By creating links of the inner or different pages of the website will help from both SEO and user experience.
Site links should be created with a constructive manner, if not then Google bots will not crawler those links and your efforts will go waste. So, if the structure of your site doesn't allow Google algorithms to find good sitelinks, or they don't think that the sitelinks for your site are relevant for the user's query, they won't show them.
If you come to know that the sitelinks displayed for your site are badly chosen or wrong, in this case you can block them from crawling and being visible on the search engine results so that they no longer appear.
To block a sitelink, first ensure that you have verified ownership of the site. Then:
  1. On the Webmaster Tools Home page, click the site you want.
  2. Under Site configuration, click Sitelinks. If google have sitelinks information for your site, they'll display a list of sitelinks.
  3. Click Block next to the sitelink you want to remove
Once you've blocked or unblocked a sitelink, it can take some time for your changes to be visible.
Note: Google only display sitelinks when a site has a minimum of three sitelinks available. If you have two or fewer unblocked sitelinks, no sitelinks at all will appear in Google search results for your site.
