robots.txt

Anyone have any idea why in webmaster tools it shows files that I do not have restricted by my robots.txt file show as restricted?

For example my playersonly review is said to be restricted but nowhere on the actual robots.txt file do I even mention this folder?

There is only 2 places you can do this: webmaster tools and the actual robots.txt file.

If you didn't manually exclude google its the file. Can you post your robots.txt file here without your actual url?

Here is my robots file copied directly. Does anything look amiss?

User-Agent: *
Disallow: /banners/
Disallow: /out
Disallow: /out/
Disallow: /play
Disallow: /play/
Allow: /

When I run your robots.txt file through an online checker it throws an error on the user-agent.

Try this;

You may find it easier to create a new robots.txt file here; http://www.searchenginepromotionhelp...ts-creator.php

Thanks Gary - That worked - when I run it through the tool now I receive no errors! Thanks again

Now go to webmaster central and request a crawl so it pushes everything out quicker.

You may even want to ping it here

Then post it on a couple social networks like Facebook and Myspace and ping those as well.

You'll be back up to par in no time.

Do a site:yoursite search on google to see if its there or assign a google alert to the page you are targeting to see when Google reindexes it.
