Adsense tech problem

Hi

Had a website built for me but the webmaster has not completed the site properly and has left me high and dry without finishing the site.

I am still a noob so do not know what to do about the following. This wordpress site will not display Adsense ads, although I can see that the webmaster has included my publishers ID and what appears to be an adsense column (?) by looking at the source code. The Home Page displays no ads, but there is a couple, and I mean only a couple of adsense ads that occassionally appear on some other pages.

I have gone to my Adsense account, which was created in March 2010, and was briefly used on only one website during May and June this year. My account has not been used since then and has earnt nothing since inception. Adsense reports that Robots.txt has loads of blocked URL's pertaining to various pages (or posts?) on my site. Don't know how to unblock this.

I have looked in the Root directory of my site using cpanel, and do not see the file robots.txt, which I thought should be there.

Any expert advice would be gratefully received, as I am not getting anywhere with the rogue who built the site.

Thanks - Greg

    Can you share the URL?

    If you can, we could probably figure out what is going on.

    If not, you can surely post this in the Google Adsense help forum as well.

    If your site isn't indexed either, make sure the Wordpress privacy settings are off. Login to Wordpress Dashboard >> Settings >> Privacy. Then, Make sure ‘I would like my blog to be visible to everyone, including search engines‘ is selected.

      Brad,

      Thanks for your response, I am honoured to see your name answering my call for assistance!. In fact I was looking at one of your many products earlier today, although I must admit I am not a client of yours yet!

      The site is topratedslrcameras.com.

      I was wrong about the robots.txt - it is in the Root directory. Oh, and I probably shouldn't have called the other warrior a rogue.

      Thanks - Greg
