hi,
as suggested by a lot of wordpress users, it's a good thing to disallow the archive pages in the robots.txt file, to avoid duplicate content.
I did this as well on my blog, but now an annoying thing happens: i have an Adsense wide skycraper in my sidebar, on every page of the blog, also on the archive-pages (you can have a look at e.g.
Lifestyle | Emigrant.be). Problem with these archive pages is that they show irrelevant Adsense ads, just because the pages are not indexed by Google..
(all the other pages that are indexed show relevant ads)
My question:
can i remove to archive pages from my robots.txt file so they get indexed as well? is this really gonna give me a penalty in Google? as i'm using excerpts in the archives personaly i think it can't be a problem..
what do you think you wordpress seniors? hehe..
