About Robots.txt Files
A robots.txt file tells search engine crawlers which pages or files the crawler can or cannot request from your site. This is primarily used to avoid overloading your site with requests.
Common Directives:
- User-agent: Specifies which crawler the rules apply to
- Allow: Tells the crawler it can access a page or directory
- Disallow: Tells the crawler it cannot access a page or directory
- Sitemap: Provides the URL of your XML sitemap
- Crawl-delay: Suggests how many seconds to wait between requests
Best Practices:
- Place the robots.txt file in the root directory of your website
- Use relative paths for Allow and Disallow directives
- Be careful with Disallow rules to avoid blocking important content
- Include your sitemap location for better crawling efficiency
- Test your robots.txt using Google Search Console
