Please kindly check my website/blog and confirm whether Rank Math SEO was properly set up. I need to know for sure.
Hello,
Thank you for contacting the support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
I checked your sitemap page and it is loading fine. I also checked some of your content posts and pages and they are already marked as index in their robots meta tag.
However, your robots.txt file is empty when I tried inspecting it. Please check if you have a static robots.txt file present in your website directory or FTP and delete it so Rank Math can generate a standard robots.txt configuration.
After doing so, allow Google some time to recrawl your website and your pages should appear on the SERP.
Let us know how that goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thanks for your response. I will share update with you soon about the static robots.txt file…

I chatted with my hosting support. They said there is no robot.txt file present in FTP/web directory. Below is the Chat!
I see there is no robot.txt file present in the /wp_site_1645391803 directory.
May I know the changes you want to do for the FTP?
i actually want to delete static robots.txt from FTP
or web directory
So that Rank Math can generate a standard robots.txt configuration
There is no robot.txt file present you can generate a new one.
Is there anything else I can assist you with?

Hello,
Thank you for the info you shared.
I tried conducting more troubleshooting and the issue persists.
Could you please check with your hosting provider as well if you have any caching services that might be still caching your robots.txt file?
If that doesn’t help, kindly share your FTP login here so we can further check the issue.
Looking forward to helping you.
Good day, I will have to share the Host/C-panel login details with You, so you can assist me once and for all. Please check the sentitive data above for login details and thank you for the support so far.
Good Day Support. Please may i know if you have resolved the robot txt issue?
Good day support. Any update?
Hello,
Sorry for the delay.
I have created a robots.txt file manually in your website files.
The robots.txt file is now working fine.
Check the screenshot in the sensitive data section.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
Thanks guys! I really appraciate that. Hope its all resolved now. Hope google can now crawl my website successfully? And Hope i won’t have the issue again when i upgrade to rankmath Pro? Cuz i want to upgrade soon.
Hello,
Since the robots.txt file is created manually in your FTP, it should stay there even you upgrade to our PRO license.
Search Engine bots should be able to properly crawl your site now. Just give Google some time to crawl your entire site as this might take a while.
Let us know how that goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thanks guys! i like your team and Rankmath SEO. Thanks for the support. Yes i will contact for any other assistance in the future.have a great time ahead.
