FAQ
Where should the robots.txt file go?
The file must be placed at the root of your domain, reachable at yoursite.com/robots.txt. If it sits in a subfolder, search engines will ignore it.
Does Disallow stop a page from being indexed?
Not entirely: Disallow blocks crawling, but a blocked page can still appear in results if it is linked elsewhere. To keep a page out of the index, use the meta noindex tag instead.
Is a robots.txt file mandatory?
No, it is not mandatory; without it, bots crawl everything by default. It becomes useful as soon as you want to restrict certain areas or point to your sitemap location.
