check your robots.txt file to see if you’re blocking something….

ideally you should not be blocking the main wordpress core folders …

Hi thanks for reply.

here is my robots.txt
http://www.techprevue.com/robots.txt

I have blocked following directory…

User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin
Disallow: /cgi-bin/
Disallow: /wp-admin
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Disallow: /wp-includes
Disallow: /wp-includes/
Disallow: /wp-content/plugins
Disallow: /wp-content/cache
Disallow: /wp-content/themes
Disallow: /wp-content/upgrade
Disallow: /wp-content/backup-*
Disallow: /aff/
Disallow: /search/*/*
Disallow: /trackback
Disallow: */trackback
Disallow: /trackback/

Which directories should not be blocked?

Please reply.

um…
unblock the ones which are blocked from your errors?

eg
/wp-content/themes/

likely

User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin
Disallow: /cgi-bin/
Disallow: /wp-content/upgrade
Disallow: /wp-content/backup-*
Disallow: /aff/
Disallow: /search/*/*
Disallow: /trackback
Disallow: */trackback
Disallow: /trackback/

Hi Chris thanks for kindness…

My New robots.txt files contains…

User-agent: *
Disallow: /cgi-bin
Disallow: /cgi-bin/
Disallow: /wp-admin
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Disallow: /wp-content/upgrade
Disallow: /wp-content/backup-*
Disallow: /aff/
Disallow: /search/*/*
Disallow: /trackback
Disallow: */trackback
Disallow: /trackback/

Is this right? Please reply.

Well… you realize that the purpose of that lineup in the robots.txt file and hence the words “disallow” are intended to tell Google and other bots what *not* to spider or look at (e.g., friendly blocking).

Anything you don’t want blocked shouldn’t be there.

Anything you do want blocked should be.

Some people have just taken to removing all that stuff for WordPress.

For instance my code in the examples from my optimization sticky effective disable trackbacks.

If you don’t have an affiliate (“aff” ?) folder — no need to block it.

If you don’t have a cgi-bin folder … why block it?

With “search” — I am not sure yes/no on whether that should be blocked since technically you do want Google to “discover” your search to add the new site search hinting.

For instance the Yoast site got rid of all of those items entirely.

So, upshot — unless you KNOW WHY you’re blocking something, why block it?

Some hosting companies have an old default robots.txt template that gets built “for you” which is how you might have ended up with that — but in most cases, really not needed now.

Those are only “guidelines” anyway — they don’t really block anything except those ‘bots that adhere to your “request” not to look in those folders. They are not actually “real” blocks against anybody.

If I open all this, what about the Security ? Will it help Hacker to Hack the site ?

Thanks Emil G.

I know that. But If I Allow: /wp-content/plugins/ Bots will index all the Plugins.

So the Hacker can easily find the more Resource to hack & week point to hack.
Am I right ?

What should I do now?

My competitors also trying to hack my site, sometimes I see Robots.txt is missing. When Its Missing they stop trying to log in my site. Now verified my SSL & Also get SiteLock Security Service. SiteLock showing there is no Security Issue.

I am in Risk, So I don’t want to allow the /wp-content/plugins/ but I want to allow only that resources Google Showing.

Please Suggest me.

I quote Emil.
You have to install an application firewall (NinjaFirewall?) or enable and configure ufw (if you’re on Ubuntu Server). Otherwise there’ll be no way to stop hackers…

We use CSF/IPTables on Apache.

I am using All in One SEO Pack, not Yoast SEO Plugin. Should I use Yoast SEO Plugin ? Is this More Compatible with NewsMag Theme?
