SEO and Item Reviews
If you allow item reviews on your site, reviews might show up higher in search results than the item page. That's why, if you're using any ShopFlow version other than 1.06, you should use the robots.txt file to block indexing of reviews and new review pages. You don't need to do this for version 1.06 because it automatically blocks indexing of reviews. Here's a sample robots.txt file to block reviews:
User-Agent: *
Disallow: /*/reviews
Disallow: /*/reviews/new
This setup blocks indexing of review and new review pages for any site where "reviews" in the URL comes right after the domain name. If your site has customized URLs, add the right number of wildcards in the disallow statement.
If there's one folder between the domain and the review pages, the Disallow statements would be:
Disallow: /*/*/reviews
Disallow: /*/*/reviews/new
If there are two folders between the domain and the review pages, the Disallow statements would be:
Disallow: /*/*/*/reviews
Disallow: /*/*/*/reviews/new
Any other customized URL should follow this same standard, with one * for each folder in the URL.
