Robots.txt Generator

Tell search engines what to crawl — valid robots.txt with rules and sitemap.

How this works

robots.txt sits at your domain root and instructs crawlers which paths they may fetch. The generator assembles the file from your rules — one User-agent block, any number of Allow/Disallow lines, plus your sitemap.

Rules are prefix matches: Disallow: /private/ blocks everything under /private/, while Allow: can carve exceptions back out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I put the file?

At the domain root: example.com/robots.txt. Anywhere else is ignored.

Does Disallow keep pages private?

No! It only asks polite crawlers to stay out. For real privacy, use passwords or noindex.

Do I need a sitemap line?

Not required, but it helps crawlers discover your sitemap faster.

  1. Set the user-agent (* = all crawlers) and optional sitemap.
