I'm trying to improve the rankability of our website by fixing index bloat issues.
Our site serves www and hosts a SaaS tool. Recently I discovered that there are thousands of non-www pages indexed that are mostly clients' log-in pages.
These are subdomains that our clients use in order for their users to go and log in to our SaaS tool from their websites.
For example - https://site.com.oursite.com/login or https://site2.oursite.com/ are such subdomains. To allow their users to utilize our tool, they have a "Member Login" page on their website that redirects them to a subdomain of our website which is a Login portal. So there are thousands of such freakin' pages indexed.
What's the best way to fix this given the fact that each client's website passes link juice to our domain thanks to the current configuration? Plus, those pages are getting clicks and impressions. Example: "site login".
I was thinking to deindex all pages except those that don't get any clicks but not sure if that's a good idea.
Thank you!
