WordPress Site Not Showing on Google?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are usually a handful of core reasons why your WordPress site does not appear in Google search results. In this section we will go through the most common ones and what lies behind them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/brandaft.com\/robots-txt-nedir\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/brandaft.com\/robots-txt-nedir\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Robots.txt file<\/a>, a simple but critical file that tells search engine bots which pages on your site they may crawl and which they may not. One small mistake in this file can stop Google indexing your site completely or in part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, the default WordPress setup sometimes contains these lines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">txt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CopyEdit<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">User-agent: *<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disallow: \/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This blocks Google from crawling and indexing your entire site. Correct robots.txt settings should look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">txt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CopyEdit<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">User-agent: *<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Allow: \/<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Fix:<br><\/strong> \u00a0Check your robots.txt file from your WordPress admin panel or over FTP.
