What robots.txt controls
Robots.txt gives crawl instructions to bots. A simple file can allow search engines to crawl your site and point them to your XML sitemap. It is usually available at the root of a domain, such as example.com/robots.txt.
Robots.txt is not a privacy or security system. Blocked URLs can still be discovered in some situations, so private content should be protected properly.
Common rules
- Use User-agent: * to target all crawlers.
- Use Allow: / to allow normal crawling.
- Use Disallow only for sections you truly do not want crawled.
- Add a Sitemap line with the full sitemap URL.
After creating the file
Upload it to the site root, open it in a browser and test it in Search Console. A small mistake can block important pages, so review carefully before deployment.
