The path is relative to the root and must contain a trailing slash "/".

The Robots.txt Generator builds a correct robots.txt file for free, letting you control which crawlers can access which parts of your site and where your sitemap lives.

Why robots.txt matters

robots.txt tells search engine crawlers what they may and may not fetch. A correct file keeps private or duplicate areas out of crawling and points bots to your sitemap; a wrong one can accidentally block your whole site.

How to use the Robots.txt Generator

  1. Choose which paths to allow or disallow.
  2. Add your sitemap URL.
  3. Copy the file to your site root as robots.txt.
