Check the relevant Wix settings and give your website provider a specific issue to review.

Level: Beginner · Reading time: 4 minutes

## What you'll learn

- Find the public access settings relevant to Wix
- Identify a specific issue to discuss with your website provider
- Retest the published website after a change


## What you can check yourself

1. In the Wix dashboard, go to **SEO & GEO → Tools and settings → SEO Settings**.
2. Confirm **Let search engines index your site** is enabled for the public production site.
3. For every important page, open **Pages & Menu → More Actions → SEO basics** and confirm **Let search engines index this page** is enabled.
4. Open `https://yourdomain.example/robots.txt`. If custom rules exist, confirm they do not block the search or retrieval crawlers the business wants to support.
5. Open `https://yourdomain.example/sitemap.xml` and confirm the important experience, service, room, event and location pages appear.
6. Check that the essential offer, audience, location, price, duration and restrictions appear on a normal public page—not only inside Wix Bookings or another iframe.
7. Publish changes and rerun the assessment against the live domain.

## What healthy looks like

- The site-wide and important-page indexing toggles are on.
- The live `robots.txt` contains no unexplained block affecting desired crawlers.
- The sitemap loads and contains the pages customers need.
- Essential tourism information is readable on the public page before the booking interaction begins.

## Making a change

Ask your provider to adjust the specific blocking rule and keep the rest of Wix's defaults in place. Put information you want discovered on public pages, outside password-protected or members-only areas.

## Message for a Wix provider

> Our crawler-access assessment found a possible restriction on **[PAGE URL]** for **[CRAWLER NAME]**. The observed evidence was **[EXACT ROBOTS RULE, NOINDEX TAG OR ERROR]**. We want this public page available for current search and AI-assisted retrieval. Please check the Wix site-wide and page-level indexing settings, the live robots.txt configuration, and any iframe or booking-page limitation. Confirm the change on the published domain and tell us what was changed.
