  • Hello, we apologize for the issue you are facing with the robots.txt file. To resolve the "Access to this page is forbidden" error, you will need to check and possibly edit your robots.txt file to ensure that it is not blocking Googlebot or other search engines from accessing your pages.

    Here are the steps you can follow to test and correct your robots.txt file:

    1. Open the Robots.txt Tester: Go to the robots.txt testing tool.

    2. Enter Your Site URL: Input the URL of your site that you want to test.
      Enter URL in robots.txt tester

    3. Select User-Agent: Choose the user agent you want to simulate (e.g., Googlebot).
      Select Googlebot as user agent in robots.txt

    4. Validate Robots.txt: Click the TEST button to see if there are any rules blocking access.

    5. Edit and Debug: If the tester finds any rules preventing access, you can edit those rules directly in the code editor. After making changes, run the test again to ensure that access is allowed.

    6. Export Changes: If you make any modifications, remember to copy and paste the updated content back into your website’s robots.txt file through Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Edit robots.txt in your WordPress admin area.
