    1. Not so much for AdSense, but for site crawlers, robots.txt is great.
    2. http://yoursite.com/robots.txt or look in your root directory for the file robots.txt
    2. delete the file: robots.txt

    My site is a blog hosted with blogger. Do they have robots.txt by default or what?

    Check out www dot searchtools dot com/robots/robots-txt.html (Replace the "dot" with actual .). It gives you a better understanding of robots.txt.

    You should have a yourblog.blogspot.com/robots.txt sub-directory when you check. Then you should upload robots.txt file. That's my problem, too. I can't upload this file since I can't access the host.
    I think there is only one solution to upload robots.txt file: There must be a host which a blog owner can control it.
