Recommendations once the website is published

Verify your robots.txt file - go to {your-domain}.bytebard.cc/robots.txt and make sure it loads properly. You can also see path to robots.txt in your settings.

Make sure you submit your sitemap to Google Search Console (and Bing Webmaster Tools, and any other search engine you want).

You can find your sitemap in your settings as well. Keep in mind that Bytebard uses index sitemap to reference your sitemap on a CDN server. You can use CDN sitemap directly as well, copying link from your settings.

Once the website is indexed by search engine, you might see some issues. Make sure to fix all of them, and if you think some of them have to be fixed by us, write us a detailed report.
