Configure Crawl Defaults

Select default permissions (Allow or Disallow) for all user-agents.

Add Custom Crawlers

3

Specify Disallow Paths

List directories you want search engines to ignore (such as /admin or /tmp).

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a robots.txt file?
A robots.txt file is a text document placed in your website's root directory that tells web crawlers (like Googlebot) which pages or folders they should or should not crawl.
Does robots.txt protect private data from being accessed?
No. The directives are public rules and rely on cooperative search crawlers. Malicious bots or scrapers ignore robots.txt directives, so you must use server passwords to protect sensitive files.
Are my configuration options uploaded to any servers?
No. The configuration matches and formats locally inside your browser using client-side JavaScript. No information is transmitted.
