Bingbot Blocked

What This Means

The robots.txt file blocks Bingbot from crawling the site. This will prevent Bing from indexing your pages, reducing your visibility in Bing search results.

What Triggers This Issue

This issue is triggered when the robots.txt contains a User-agent: Bingbot (or User-agent: *) directive followed by Disallow: / which blocks access to the entire site.

How To Fix

Remove or modify the Disallow directive for Bingbot unless you intentionally want to prevent Bing from crawling your site. Use more specific Disallow rules to block only the paths you don’t want indexed.
