What is the appropriate Robot.txt to unblock if Google cannot get all the resources from my homepage?
-
Hello everyone. I did some research as to why my website has decreased in the Google search rankings recently. After reading this Yoast article I believe it's because the robot.txt files I have set up on my wordpress website. The following is a screen shot of the results of a fetch & render query of my webpage.Googlebot couldn't get all resources for this page. Here's a list:
My current robot.txt settings are as follows;
User-agent: * Disallow: /wp-admin/ Disallow: /wp-includes/ Disallow: */xmlrpc.php Disallow: */wp-*.php Disallow: */trackback/ Disallow: *?wptheme= Disallow: *?comments= Disallow: *?replytocom Disallow: */comment-page- Disallow: *?s= Disallow: */wp-content/ Allow: */wp-content/uploads/ ```What to I need to allow/disallow to allow Google spiders to properly read my website? -
Remove the following line:
Disallow: */wp-content/ And add: Allow: /wp-includes/js/
