How to Stop Google Search URL Rewrite and Redirect when using Ezoic

Product Support

AI-generated summary

Sachin_Tajane reported an urgent issue where Google search traffic to zapask.com was being redirected to private pages due to URL rewriting, such as duplicating the route (e.g., “/t/does-gina-rodriguez-speak-spanish-fluently/12030” appearing twice). After investigation, he discovered the issue stemmed from Ezoic, a media publisher network he recently joined, which had altered his Cloudflare DNS settings. Reverting to his original DNS settings resolved the problem Sachin_Tajane. However, RGJ warned that Ezoic may automatically revert DNS settings again unless Cloudflare API access is revoked, advising others to take preventive action. Moin requested details on the fix, which Sachin provided, highlighting the importance of monitoring third-party DNS changes to preserve search traffic integrity.

Would you mind sharing what exactly you did? Was it something specific you had to disable? Maybe someone else will have the same problem.

:warning: Be aware! We had a number of clients having the same issue and Ezoic keeps reverting those settings back to their service automatically. You should revoke their Cloudflare API access, otherwise you’ll be having the same issue next week.
