Free Robots.txt Generator
Generate a clean robots.txt file with user-agent groups, allow/disallow rules, and sitemap URLs. Build a solid crawl-control file in seconds.
What to include
- Use Disallow for crawl paths you do not want bots to crawl.
- Use Allow when you need to override broader blocked paths.
- Add one or more Sitemap URLs so crawlers can discover your XML sitemaps.
- Keep the file simple unless you have a specific crawl-control reason.
Best practices
Use robots.txt for crawl guidance only. It does not secure private content. Sensitive files and private areas should be protected with authentication, proper permissions, or server-level restrictions.
