  Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you have trouble with your website. However, your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. Instead, it is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with Siteground.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at https://wordpress.org/support/ and support at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  With that said, I do see at https://acemedicalco.com/robots.txt that the file is publicly accessible, so I’m curious to know what the error is that the checker is returning? If we know that, we might be able to help or at least direct you to the folks who can. :)
