πŸ’‘ What Is robots.txt?

The robots.txt file tells search engines which parts of your website they can crawl. It’s useful for blocking admin pages, login areas, or test environments from being indexed.

Basic Example

User-agent: *
Disallow: /admin/

Best Practices

  • Don’t block important pages like /blog/ unless necessary
  • Include your sitemap URL to help crawlers find content
  • Use only one robots.txt file per domain
