Hello, we apologize for the issue you are facing regarding the "Page blocked from indexing" message. This typically indicates that your robots.txt file is preventing Google from crawling certain pages on your site.
To address this, you can follow these steps:
-
Check Your robots.txt File: Access your robots.txt file by visiting
https://rankmath.com/kb/how-to-edit-robots-txt-with-rank-math/. Look for anyDisallow` directives that might be blocking the pages you want indexed.
-
Modify the Directives: If you find any directives that are blocking important pages, you can remove or modify them to allow Googlebot access.
-
Set Pages to Noindex if Necessary: If there are pages you do not want to appear in search results, consider setting them to "noindex" instead of blocking them in robots.txt.
For more detailed guidance, you can refer to our comprehensive guide on fixing the "Blocked by robots.txt" error here.
If you’re unsure about making these changes, it might be helpful to consult with someone who has experience with SEO or web development to avoid any potential issues. Thank you for raising this concern!
