About Robots.txt

What is robots.txt?

A robots.txt file tells search engine crawlers which URLs they can access on your site. This is used mainly to avoid overloading your site with requests.

Best Practices:

  • Use * for User-agent to apply rules to all crawlers
  • Be specific with paths you want to disallow
  • Include your sitemap location for better indexing
  • Test your robots.txt with Google Search Console

Common Directories to Block:

  • /admin/ - Administration areas
  • /cgi-bin/ - Server scripts
  • /tmp/ - Temporary files
  • /logs/ - Log files
  • /private/ - Private content

Note: robots.txt is a request, not a enforcement. Sensitive content should be properly secured, not just blocked via robots.txt.
