Google Search console message
-
I have just received an email, supposedly from the Google Search Console Team advising me that some of my site pages are not being indexed. The reason they quote is “Blocked by robots.txt”. I think it is some kind of scam. The email address appears to be “sc-noreply(@)google.com. Should I be worried?

I think I have sussed this It seems that I had “Discourage search engines from indexing this site.” selected in the security options.

Hi there!
I think I have sussed this It seems that I had “Discourage search engines from indexing this site.” selected in the security options.
That sounds like a valid reason why Google Search Console would send you that email. I checked your site, and it seems to have “Public” visibility, so if you request Google to reindex/crawl your site again, everything should be working as expected.
Hope that helps!
