I hope someone can help me I'm losing cash out of my behind. Okay I haven't done any major changes to my site and sudenly google stopped crawling my site. I submitted a sitemap and this is the error I get. the problem is I don't have a robot.txt file so I don't know how they are finding it. here's the error message below: Network unreachable: robots.txt unreachable We were unable to crawl your Sitemap because we found a robots.txt file at the root of your site but were unable to download it. Please ensure that it is accessible or remove it completely.
So im guessing your using some sort of FTP program like ipswitch? And when your checking out your root folder your not seeing the robot.txt file? can you access your .htaccess file? "I submitted a sitemap" do you mean you just uploaded a sitemap.php page or did you submit with google sitemap?
this might be a stupid question or not... are you sure the permissions of your robots.txt let it be read by everybody? just to be sure try to CHMOD it 777 and take permissions gradually while checking in google webmaster tools if it's still readable. if it's not readable with 777 permissions then i would say that's the strangest thing i've ever heard of. If it's a dumb suggestion that i'm making please just ignore it.
