Search engine blocked by robots-crawl error by moz & GWT
-
Hello Everyone,.
For My Site I am Getting Error Code 605: Page Banned by robots.txt, X-Robots-Tag HTTP Header, or Meta Robots Tag, Also google Webmaster Also not able to fetch my site, tajsigma.com is my site
Any expert Can Help please,
Thanx
-
When was your last crawl date in Google Webmaster Tools/Search Console? It may be that your site was crawled with some kind of problem with the robots.txt and hasn't been re-crawled since.
-
Yes , Exactly
I am also worried For that only, Can you please help to identify my site problem
Thnx
-
That's very strange. The robots.txt looks fine, but here's what I see when I search for your site on Google.
-
Headers look fine and as you correctly said your robots and meta robots are also ok.
I have also noted that doing a site:www etc in google search is also returning pages for your site so again showing it is being crawled and indexed.
To all intents and purposes it looks ok to me. Someone else may be able to shed more light on the issue if they have experienced this error to this degree.

www.tajsigma.com This the Domain For Query robots 605- code
-
Just to check it that the live one, or just a test in GSC. Can you send a link to your site maybe in a PM.
-
Yes, It is Also okay there see Attached screenshot
-
Have you followed the following and in Google Search Console tried testing your robots file.
If you are allowing all, I would maybe suggest simply removing your robots.txt all together so it defaults to just crawling everything.
-
Thanx, Tim Holmes For Your Quick reply
But My robots.txt File is
User-agent: *
allow: /Also in All pages i have Add Meta-tag
Then After Page is Not Getting Fetched or Crawl by GWT.
Thnx

Hello Falguni,
I believe the error is saying pretty much everything you need to know. Your Robots file or robots meta would appear to be blocking your site from being crawled.
Have you checked your robots.txt file in your root - or type in http://www.yourdomain.com/robots.txt
To ensure your site is being crawled and for robots to have complete access the following should be in place
**User-agent: ***
Disallow: To exclude all robots from the entire server**User-agent: ***
Disallow: **/**If it is the a meta tag causing the issue you will require, or have it removed to default to the below.As opposed to the following combinations which could result in some areas not being indexed, crawled etc
_Hope that helps
Tim_

Can Google Crawl & Index my Schema in CSR JavaScript
We currently only have one option for implementing our Schema. It is populated in the JSON which is rendered by JavaScript on the CLIENT side. I've heard tons of mixed reviews about if this will work or not. So, does anyone know for sure if this will or will not work. Also, how can I build a test to see if it does or does not work?

What's the best possible URL structure for a local search engine?
Hi Mozzers, I'm working at AskMe.com which is a local search engine in India i.e if you're standing somewhere & looking for the pizza joints nearby, we pick your current location and share the list of pizza outlets nearby along with ratings, reviews etc. about these outlets. Right now, our URL structure looks like www.askme.com/delhi/pizza-outlets for the city specific category pages (here, "Delhi" is the city name and "Pizza Outlets" is the category) and www.askme.com/delhi/pizza-outlets/in/saket for a category page in a particular area (here "Saket") in a city. The URL looks a little different if you're searching for something which is not a category (or not mapped to a category, in which case we 301 redirect you to the category page), it looks like www.askme.com/delhi/search/pizza-huts/in/saket if you're searching for pizza huts in Saket, Delhi as "pizza huts" is neither a category nor its mapped to any category. We're also dealing in ads & deals along with our very own e-commerce brand AskMeBazaar.com to make the better user experience and one stop shop for our customers. Now, we're working on URL restructure project and my question to you all SEO rockstars is, what can be the best possible URL structure we can have? Assume, we have kick-ass developers who can manage any given URL structure at backend.

GWT - Links to website - Are they accurate
Hi I am looking at GWT more and more and I starting not to believe the information within it. For example we had a link on XYZ.com say 6 months ago. This link as been removed no reference to our website, however it still showing on GWT inbound links. I have noticed quite a few sites which have no relevance to our site. Is anyone else finding the information wrong in WMT

Rich Snippets not appearing in Search Results
Hi Everyone, Just a few questions on rich snippets please: We have now integrated microdata (data-vocabulary.org) on all our product pages like http://www.homeshop18.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-2-310-tablet/computer-peripherals/ipads-tablets/product:30409470/cid:8937/ which I have tested on the rich snippets testing tool which Google provides and all is working fine and is rendering properly in the tool but it is not coming in search results in google. Are we doing everything right or is there any issue in our implementation? How long does it take usually for rich snippets to appear in google organic search results?

Org & edu citations or links
One of my clients is a physician and I have achieved excellent SERP positioning for multiple targeted terms, but need to build a bit more domain authority in hopes of climbing one or two more positions and bumping a strong local competitor. I am segueing into the the off-page SEO work and was wondering if anyone would be willing to share their favorite search queries or tips for seeking-out potential citation or back link sources on .org or .edu sites which are relevant to my client's area of expertise? Thanks!

Universal Search vs Local Organic
Hi, My web site has high rankings in universal SERP's. However, in my city organic search the competitors’ web sites that even don’t show up in universal Serp’s have higher rankings than mine. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Thanks for any insight.
