Solution opentype Posted November 21, 2021 Solution Posted November 21, 2021 It’s expected and usually nothing to worry about when content is deliberately blocked through a robots.txt. But have a look at the URLs it is giving as example and check to make sure that removing them from the index is okay.
Jim M Posted November 21, 2021 Posted November 21, 2021 As @opentype mentioned, this is indeed expected behavior. However, review the URLs that are blocked to ensure that there are no base URLs in there.
