: AMP pages appear in Google Desktop search results I'm using WordPress on my website. To add the AMP pages to my website I use the official WordPress AMP plugin and another plugin called "AMP

@Barnes591

AMP as a platform has been designed to provide faster and better experience. Pages load very fast and smoothly.
Having said that, if you make a search using your desktop then google search would display the desktop version of your page and not the amp version. AMP pages are only to be displayed when the search has been made using the mobile device.

To make you understand better the co-relation between amp and html pages, I am pasting relevant text from here.


The mechanism described below provides a standardized way for software
to discover whether an AMP version exists for a canonical(HTML)
document.

If an AMP document exists that is an alternative representation of a
canonical document, then the canonical document should point to the
AMP document via a link tag with the relation "amphtml".

Example:

The AMP
document itself is expected to point back to its canonical document
via a link tag with the relation "canonical".

Example:

<link rel="canonical"
href="https://www.example.com/url/to/canonical/document.html"> (If a
single resource is simultaneously the AMP and the canonical document,
the canonical relation should point to itself--no "amphtml" relation
is required.)
