SEO Workflow
The main aspects to pay attention to are proper indexing instructions in your
robots.txt file and proper pages response codes.
How-to 1: Check if your robots.txt file is in place. If you’re not sure whether
you have a robots.txt file or not, check the status of the Robots.txt factor in Site
Audit.
How-to 2: Make sure none of your important pages are blocked from
indexing. If your content cannot be accessed by search engines, it will not
appear in search results, so you need to check the list of pages that are currently
blocked from indexing, and make sure no important content got blocked by
occasion.
Switch to the Resources restricted from indexing section in Site Audit to revise which
of your site’s pages and resources are blocked by:
the robots.txt file itself
the “noindex” tag in the <head> section of pages
the X-Robots-Tag in the HTTP header
How-to 3: Revise your robots.txt file (or create it from scratch). Now, if you
need to create a robots.txt file, or fix its instructions, simply switch to the Pages
module and click . In the menu that pops up, you can either fetch your
robots.txt from server to revise it, or create a robots.txt file from scratch and
upload it to your website.
