Google does not index my website.

[Ponarul A P]

Sitemap has been generated for https://www.expertise.institute. Google analytics says crawling is blocked by robots.txt. The website has been published and has allowed search engines to index the pages. Please advice on how to get google to index the website.

@Ponarul-A-P Hi, it looks like your robots.txt blocks all pages

Are you sure you have unchecked this option? (prevent search engines from indexing this website)

Hope that helps.

@Maciej-Bienkowski Thank you for your help. These are the pages that we have deliberately not indexed . We have indexed 12 other pages which still seemed to be blocked. We have unchecked the option(prevent search engines from indexing this website), so search engines should be able to index the site. Please advise.

@Ponarul-A-P what do you mean by seemed to be blocked? Can you share a screenshot of that assumption?

In Google Search Console, make sure you have added the sitemap there and check that it has verified all of the pages in the sitemap. There might be errors on the pages that prevents google from indexing them.

There's only 2 pages that has been indexed so far, so something is wrong, but i don't see any issues.

I now see 7 pages indexed in google, so it seems it's ongoing
