    hello.

    After i ceate a staggering website, it will be automatically registered in Google Search Console over time.

    But I already put the below in robot.txt but it doesn’t work.

    Disallow: /test/*
Disallow: /test2/*
Disallow: /test3/*
Disallow: /test4/*
Disallow: /test5/*
Disallow: /test/
Disallow: /test2/
Disallow: /test3/
Disallow: /test4/
Disallow: /test5/

    Could you tell me know if there is a way to solve this problem?

    I’m worried that having multiple stegging sites on GSC will have a bad effect on SEO.

    Thank you.

    Hi @seotaro
    This might be caused by a SEO related plugin added to the staging site, but by default we add “noindex” tag to the staging site, so the site will not be added to Google index.

    Thanks,
    Alaa
