Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with crawlers. To address this, you can use the Robots Testing Tool from Google to check your robots.txt file and ensure that there are no directives blocking Googlebot from accessing your site. You can access the tool by following this link: Robots Testing Tool.
Once you’re in the tool, you can enter the URL of your site and select the user-agent you want to simulate, such as Googlebot. This will allow you to test your robots.txt file and make sure that there are no directives blocking Googlebot from accessing your site.
If you find that there are directives in your robots.txt file that are blocking Googlebot from accessing your site, you will need to remove them or replace them with a more permissive one. If you need help editing your robots.txt file, you can refer to our guide on how to edit robots.txt with Rank Math.
If you encounter any issues while trying to resolve this problem, please feel free to reach out to our dedicated support team for further assistance. We’re available 24/7, 365 days a year and we’re here to help.
I hope this helps!

Hello,
Thank you for your patience.
You should only use your website URL in Ahrefs tester. However, you are already using our recommended robots.txt rules and it should work fine:
