    Google Webmaster Health Issues On My Site.

    Hi All,

    I have been experimenting with the robots.txt file and thought a good base to start off with would be what they use here at VBSEO

    So I copied the robots.txt file into a new file of my own and uploaded it to the root of my forum.

    Today I get this error on Google WebMaster Tools.
    Severe health issues are found on your site. - Check Site Health

    When I click Check Site Health I see:
    Is robots.txt blocking important pages?

    Some important page is blocked by robots.txt.
    When I click the link to find what is wrong it points to.

    Myforum/members/bonniesmummy.htm

    Here is my robots.txt file

    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /*-print/
    Disallow: /vbseocp.php
    Disallow: /login.php
    Disallow: /member.php
    Disallow: /memberlist.php
    Disallow: /newthread.php
    Disallow: /newreply.php
    Disallow: /printthread.php
    Disallow: /private.php
    Disallow: /profile.php
    Disallow: /register.php
    Disallow: /search.php
    Disallow: /sendmessage.php

    Sitemap: addresstositemaphere

    Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
    Why would Google WebMaster Tools think a member page was important?
    Why would it just be the one and not all my member pages?

    any ideas?

    You aren't blocking that in the robots file at all. It's probably an error on google's part. Monitor it for a few days and see what happens.
