Robots.txt SEO

The robots.txt file is crucial for controlling how search engine crawlers interact with your website. It enables you to specify which pages and files should be accessible to search engines and which should remain private. For Blogger sites, a custom robots.txt file can offer advantages beyond the default settings provided by Blogger.

On this website, we offer free robots.txt generators to help you create a custom file for your Blogger site.

Understanding Robots.txt

A robots.txt file, also known as the robots exclusion protocol, is a simple text file that provides instructions to search engine crawlers about which parts of your site they can and cannot access. This file allows you to block specific posts or pages from being indexed. Every website has a robots.txt file located in its root directory, typically accessed like this: robotstxtseo.com/robots.txt.
