If you have a robots.txt on your store’s site it is a good idea to add a meta tag that helps search engine spiders find your robots.txt file (click here for instructions on how to add a robots.txt to your site). Doing this may also help your site get indexed quicker, which will help bring more potential customers to your store.
My instructions to add robots.txt meta tags to your site: |
|
|
Step One
|
|
| Log in to your site’s Admin and click on the ‘Template‘ tab and ‘header.php‘ link. | |
| Save a copy of the original code (click here for instructions on how to do this). | |
| Step Two | |
| Copy and paste the contents of robots-meta.txt UNDER the other meta tags. The other meta tags may look different than the code you paste into header.php but they will have the word meta in their tags and will be under the <head> tag. | |
| Here is how the added meta code looks in the header.php for one of my sites: | |
 |
|
| Save changes and view site for errors. | |
