Using our tool you can generate a robots.txt that will help Google and other search engines to crawl and index your website properly
What is a Robots.txt file? It’s a file that tells search engine bots how to crawl a website. Also known as a robots exclusion protocol, a robots.txt file can also be used to specify which parts of a website you don’t want to be crawled. i.e. duplicate content, thank you pages, pages in draft etc.
The contents of a Robots.txt file include the User-agent, and below it, other directives like Allow, Disallow, Crawl-Delay etc.
To write a Robots.txt manually would take a lot of time, and one wrong line can exclude your pages from being indexed. So, it is better to leave the task to the professionals or tools such as Urgent Expert’s Robots.txt generator.
A robots.txt file is one of the first files a search engine bot will look for on a website. If it is not found, there is a chance crawlers won’t index all of the pages of your website and this can impact the ranking of your website in search engines.
You can use Robots.txt to also disallow pages too, so only the rich pages are indexed, and your thin or unnecessary pages are ignored.
A sitemap is important for all websites as it holds useful information for search engines. It tells bots how often you update your website, and what kind of content your site has. A robots.txt file is for crawlers, it tells them what pages to crawl and which not to.
