Default Re: robots.txt unreachable - googlebot stopped crawling

Euxaristw for your answer

Well, I know about my dns issues, they were there from the beginning and they never caused any problem. I also used to have a sitemap, but I removed it after the problem with google appeared. Now, whenever I try to upload a new one, google says it's unreachable too.

What puzzles me is that I have absolutely no Googlebot requests in my access and error logs. I also tried to translate some pages of my site using the google language tools and they were unreachable from there as well.

So what I'm thinking is that somehow the google ips have been blocked from by server. Do you know of a way to verify what ips are blocked from my host's machine?

Another post possible problem can be your DNS errors: DNS Stuff: DNS tools, DNS hosting tests, WHOIS, traceroute, ping, and other network and domain name tools.
You better check that out with your provider as soon as possible.

When all issues above are clarified and solved, then create an XML site map and submit it to Google.

I just checked and you are not banned from Google.

Good luck patrida! I am half Greek. LOL
