Enabling search robot scanning of your site

  1. Log into WordPress
  2. Select "Settings" → "Privacy"
  3. For "Blog Visibility" select "I would like my blog to be visible…"
  4. Select "Save Changes"

Search engine robots will now go through your site and index it eventually.

If you wait until you have all of the basic sections of your store traffic site finished to let search engine bots index it, your site will most likely be treated a little bit better.

How to disable search engine robots in wordpress

  • Log into your WordPress admin panel
  • Select "Settings" → "Privacy"
  • Select "I would like to block search engines, but allow normal visitors"
  • Select "Save Changes" to save your changes

Don’t forget:

Once you have finished creating your site, you should be sure to change this back and tell search engine robots that it is ok to index your site…otherwise it won’t rank well at all and you will be left wondering what is going on.
