What is the Robots.txt Generator?

This generator builds a valid robots.txt file from a few choices: which crawlers to address, which paths to allow or block, and the address of your sitemap. You get a ready-to-upload file with correct syntax.

Why it matters for SEO

robots.txt is the first file search engines request from your domain. A clean one lets them crawl what matters, keeps them out of admin, cart and search-result pages that waste crawl budget, and points them straight at your sitemap. Writing it by hand is where typos like “Disallow: /” sneak in.

How to read your Robots.txt Generator results

Upload the generated text as robots.txt to the root of your domain so it is reachable at https://yourdomain.com/robots.txt. Then confirm it with the Robots.txt Tester. Remember that Disallow is advice to well-behaved crawlers, not a security control.

Expert tips

Always include your sitemap URL.
Block internal search results and faceted filter URLs, not CSS or JS.
Decide deliberately whether to allow AI crawlers like GPTBot and ClaudeBot.
Never store secrets in paths you “hide” with robots.txt — it is public.

Limitations

Output is built only from the values you enter. The tool cannot see your existing site setup, so review the result before you add it to a live site.
