I've noticed the SEO on my site is not nearly as high as comparable sites. One thing that certainly HELPS SEO is for the "Robots" field to indicate "Index, Follow." Does EasyBlog have a setting for this? OR do I need to enter it every time? Please tell me the best practice to follow, as I noticed that my Robots field is BLANK by default on all my 3,000+ articles. Help!

Hello John,

I don't think you need to explicitly set "Index, Follow" because by default the crawlers would automatically index and follow unless you tell it explicitly not to. I do think only on cases where you "deny all but allow only some", then you need to manually insert the "Index, Follow" tags.
