Why Use Robots.txt Generator?
Protect Private Areas
Block search engines from indexing admin panels, user data, and private directories. Keep sensitive areas out of search results.
Optimize Crawl Budget
Direct search engine bots to important pages. Don't waste crawl budget on low-value pages like filters or duplicates.
Block AI Crawlers
Control whether AI training bots (GPTBot, CCBot) can access your content. Protect your content from AI training datasets.
Sitemap Integration
Include your sitemap URL so search engines can find all your important pages efficiently.
Common Use Cases
Robots.txt configurations
Block Admin Areas
Keep /admin, /wp-admin, /dashboard and similar areas out of search results. Protect administrative interfaces.
Block AI Training
Prevent AI companies from using your content to train models. Block GPTBot, CCBot, and similar crawlers.
Hide Filter Pages
Block faceted navigation, filter pages, and sort variations that create duplicate content issues.
Guide Search Engines
Direct crawlers to important content and away from low-value pages. Optimize your crawl budget.
How It Works
Select User Agent
Choose which bots to create rules for. Use '*' for all bots or select specific search engines.
Set Disallow Rules
Enter paths you want to block from crawling. Each path on a new line (e.g., /admin/).
Add Allow Rules
Optionally specify paths to allow within disallowed directories.
Add Sitemap URL
Include your sitemap.xml URL to help search engines discover your pages.
Pro Tips for Robots.txt
Don't List Secrets
Robots.txt is public! Listing /secret-admin-panel/ tells everyone it exists. Use proper authentication instead.
Test Before Deploying
Use Google Search Console's tester before uploading. One wrong character can block your entire site from Google.
Always Add Sitemap
Including your sitemap URL helps search engines find pages efficiently, especially on large or complex sites.
Avoid Crawl Delay
Unless you have server issues, skip crawl-delay. It slows indexing and Google ignores it anyway.
