Hello,
I apologize for the issues you are facing with your schema setup. Thank you for raising this concern. Let’s address the points mentioned by your friend’s web developer:
-
Author Schema: Rank Math automatically adds the Author Schema Entity to your blog posts. If it’s not appearing, you may need to check your settings. You can ensure that the Author Schema is correctly configured by visiting WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta → Posts and confirming that the Author Schema is enabled.
-
Logo as Favicon: This issue might arise if the logo settings are not configured correctly. You can set your logo and favicon in WordPress Dashboard → Appearance → Customize → Site Identity. Make sure to upload the correct logo and favicon images there.
-
Header Labeling: Proper header labeling is crucial for SEO. Ensure that your headers (H1, H2, etc.) are structured correctly in your posts. The H1 tag should typically be used for the post title, while H2 and H3 tags can be used for subheadings.
Regarding your blogging niche, as a dog blogger, you can choose to identify as either a personal blogger or a small business, depending on how you want to position your blog. If you’re monetizing your blog or offering services/products related to dog care, identifying as a small business might be more appropriate.

Analyzing Your Site’s SEO with Rank Math’s SEO Analysis Tool
I don’t know what you mean by “WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta → Posts and confirming that the Author Schema is enabled” there is no section for “author schema”
Also, Yandex is now showing an issue with sitemaps, which I assume is a Rank Math issue.
Thanks!
Hello,
We’ve tested a random post on your site, and the author schema is already showing fine, nested under the Article schema:
https://search.google.com/test/rich-results/result/r%2Farticles?id=T_R6HBqASqm7UQHRIgGDgw
Also, your sitemap is validating fine upon testing:

Please share the Yandex issue on your sitemap so we can check. You can upload screenshots using this tool and add the link here.
Regarding the Logo, you can change the image in Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Local SEO > Logo.
Looking forward to helping you.
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
I just sent the link from imgur. Thank you!
Hello,
The error is due to missing a physical robots.txt file, but it does not prevent any bots/crawlers from seeing the rules inside your https://yourdomain.com/robots.txt.
If you want to fix it, you can create a static robots.txt directly in your website’s root directory and copy the same rules.
However, you won’t be able to update it in Rank Math > General Settings since there’s already a file:

Looking forward to helping you.
