 * If i want to remove amp from the site should i just deactivate and delete the
   plugin or do i need to add redirection (from amp urls to site urls)
 * what happens to amp page results already ranking on the search pages ie when 
   a user finds an amp url and he clicks on it – would it automatically go to the
   non amp url after deleting the plugin.
 * As a solution I read this somewhere – you should disable all the “Content types
   enabled for AMP” for one week and this will non-index the pages properly and 
   then deactivate the plugin – is this correct?

 * Sorry, i need a little hand holding with this.
 * Amp is first class, gave site great speed, and in trasitional mode works beautifully
   on the site with no errors but the ad management plugin support says it is not
   great for revenue,(do not know why, but something to do with ‘not many sites 
   using”) so sorry to have to let it go.
 * As per the page you linked to
 * 1. disable the plugin
    2. add redirection of amp url to site url
 * These are the steps, right ? The second step is to be done right after the first
   step?
    if i do these, the amp pages already on the search pages – when some one
   clicks on them, will go directly to non amp pages, right?

 * Yes, those are steps to follow. alternatively use the tool mentioned in the guide
   to remove the AMP version of the Page.
 * May I know which ad management plugin suggested that you should remove AMP? did
   you asked him “why he thinks AMP is affecting your ad revenue?”
 * Google search is rolling out [Page experience](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/guides/page-experience)
   as one of the ranking signals, and AMP is a cost effective way to achieve great
   page experinace.
 * This means your AMP page will be ranked higher where it’s competing against similar
   search results, which means you get more page views and more page views are equal
   to more ad revenue right?

 * Hi Weston,
    I am sorry for duplicating the topic. Do not want to do anything 
   wrong. Yes, you did explain clearly in the earlier topic, but i was again worried
   about pages already in the search pages – but as you said, they will see the 
   non amp pages, right?
 * Regarding the ad management plugin – yes, they did say that -reasons ‘because
   sites with amp earn a lot less’; “less companies willing to advertise in amp”.
   etc. Maybe they have some experience about this.

 * Amp is better for page experience and speed and it is free cdn use. I have decided
   to keep it.
