Squarespace, Google Search Counsel & Robots.txt

Recommended Posts

Posted

I have been trying to find a way to continue to stay with sqauarespace.

 

My site has over 2.6k pages that cant be crawled due to robots.txt

1000 of those pages are blogs and content.

I would like to know how to resolve this issue and get Google to crawl my website so I can place it organically.

All of the links in the screenshot are not pages they are category filters for the blog page.

Have you uploaded the sitemap and requested indexing of your main pages?

Make a list of your core pages, and start going through and manually requesting indexing. You'll have to do this in batches as GSC will only let you do a certain number every 24 hours.

Generally speaking, any pages that have a ? in them after the main URL and slug, can be ignored, Google won't index them, and you don't need them to be indexed.
