SEO by 10Web
You have designed your website, filled your pages with content, and have taken it live.

Robots are sent to search the internet for new and relevant content/code, which they then Index, and then Rank according to how relevant your content is to the search query. The robots crawl and discover your website using links. Once in your site, they index the information of each page to assure that search queries are answered in the most precise way possible. Whether they are allowed to crawl and index or not index your site, will affect your SEO and your website ranking.
