: How to avoid getting warnings from Google about render problems due to robots.txt when there is Facebook content on our site? It's quite weird that Google seems to try to crawl some Facebook

@BetL925

This alert isn't relevant for your site's rating and ranking. Google absolutely realizes, that it crawls a third party ressource, and Google knows the web situation profound enough to understand, that you don't control crawling of scripts hosted by Facebook ;)

But with the very high paranoia level you could host Facebook scripts locally and allow their crawling. Some webmasters are doing so, because of paranoia or because of performance - i've read reports about achievings of performance gains (because of less requests through the web). But this is personally for me rather a kind of religious question - i guess, performance gains are in the scope of ‰.
