    Hello,
    I wanna ask you guys that is there any way to remove the date from post snippet in google search. I searched over Google and found that it is helpful to remove for better CTR. I wanna ask what would be the best way to discourage Google to show Article date from Google SERPs without any plugin. Although, I have disabled showing date on my post front end.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    The date that you can see in Google Search results is taken from the post date, so if in your post design you remove that field (a lot of themes have that option in the Customizer), it won’t be displayed in your content and then, Google won’t be able to display it.

    Since you say you already tried using the Customizer, you can try the other methods this article talks about: https://www.shoutmeloud.com/how-to-remove-date-from-google-search-results.html

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
