Googlebot found an extremely high number of URLs on your site:
-
Website: www.gobol.in
Although I have no indexed my search pages by adding /catalogsearch in robots.txt, still we are getting same error again and again
Here's a list of sample URLs with potential problems.
- http://www.gobol.in/catalogsearch/result/index/?category=&mobile_feature=4575_4578&q=panasonic+NR-BU303LH1H+REFRIGERATOR+296+L+GREY&special_price=32%2C456&x=0&y=0
- http://www.gobol.in/mobile-and-accessories/mobiles-and-brands.html?manufacturer=4753_3355_455_4435_4720_3407_2412_4728_4784_4790_2010_4789_4376_2469&operating_system_mobile=4612
Please help

Hi Ravi,
This message you got from Google is more a warning then an error, that is good to keep in mind. As there is no problem in theory with having a lot of URLs on your site if the quality is high enough. Therefore the first URL shouldn't cause any troubles, as like you mention, it's included in the robots.txt file.
The second URL is a bit less nice but shouldn't also be trouble, as it's making sure that the URL parameters are working. Also there is a canonical URL on all these filter pages to make sure the pages are originally linked back to the category page. It could be worth it to check the URL parameters within Google Webmaster Tools to make sure Google is aware of all the changes in content for different parameters.

Hi Ravi,
Did you use the robots.txt tester in Webmastertools - your robots.txt mentions to block /catalogsearch - if you want to block the entire directory I think you have to use
Disallow: /catalogsearch/
On top of that /catalogsearch is only blocked for Googlebot-image - not for the "normal" Googlebot - if you want to have it blocked for all bots you have to move it to the beginning of the file. Idem for /admin => should be /admin/ and in the beginning of your robots.txt file
rgds,
Dirk
