What is Robots.txt?

The robots.txt file is a text file webmasters create to instruct web robots (like search engine crawlers) how to crawl pages on their website. It's part of the Robots Exclusion Protocol (REP).

Common Uses

  • • Block access to private/admin areas
  • • Prevent duplicate content issues
  • • Control crawl budget for large sites
  • • Block AI training bots

Important Notes

  • • Not a security mechanism (files are still accessible)
  • • Some bots may ignore robots.txt
  • • Must be located at site root
  • • Changes may take time to propagate
  1. 1 Select User-Agent: Choose the bot (e.g., `Googlebot`, `Bingbot`, or `*` for all bots) you want to set rules for.
  2. 2 Set Rules: Specify the directories you want to Allow or Disallow access to (e.g., `Disallow: /admin/`).
  3. 3 Generate File: Click "Create Robots.txt". Copy the content and save it as a plain text file named `robots.txt` in your root directory.
