On my first WordPress site I went and added all of the files I didn’t want search engines indexing to my robots.txt file thinking that it was necessary to keep them out of the SERPS. But WordPress makes it easier than I was trying to make it by starting almost every file in the root, and all subfolders, with ‘wp-’. With a 2 line robots.txt file you can block most everything that needs to be blocked.
User-agent: * Disallow: /wp-
Wow!
I was thinking about exactly this way, just was looking for a ready-made file to copy-paste :)
Unfortunately this isn’t the place to copy the whole thing directly, but anyway, nice to see like-minded folks
oops!
Turned out it is actually copyable!
(the digits 1,2 are not copied really)
Thanks!
