Robots.txt controls crawling, not guaranteed indexing, so pair it with careful launch review.
For https://example.com/, the file should be available at https://example.com/robots.txt.
Sitemap lines should use fully qualified URLs so crawlers do not have to infer host variants.
After using the Robots.txt Generator, open the final URL in a private browser and validate it in search engine tools.
Common questions about robots.txt rules, Crawl-delay, and sitemap lines.
No. robots.txt controls crawling. A blocked URL may still appear if search engines discover it elsewhere, so use noindex or removal tools when you need indexing control.
No. Google documents User-agent, Allow, Disallow, and Sitemap support, and notes that unsupported fields such as Crawl-delay are ignored.
Upload robots.txt to the root of the host it applies to, such as https://example.com/robots.txt.
Yes. The Robots.txt Generator accepts multiple sitemap URLs, one per line, and outputs separate Sitemap directives.
Open the Robots.txt Generator, choose a crawler template, and export a clean robots.txt file for your next launch.
