FAQ

What is robots.txt for? Why do websites need this file?

robots.txt tells search engines which paths they can and shouldn't crawl. It's a very common step in crawl management and basic SEO setup.

Do I need to configure robots.txt before launching a new website?

Recommended. Even simple rules help standardize crawl scope and declare sitemap addresses, reducing search engine recognition costs.

Can I configure Allow, Disallow, and Sitemap together?

Yes. The generator outputs common robots rule structures, making it easy to copy directly for deployment to your website root directory.

Why is manual robots.txt writing error-prone?

Common issues include wrong paths, inconsistent casing, unclear rule ordering, or missing sitemaps. Using a generator reduces format and syntax errors.
