Helpful questions

Does robots.txt prevent indexing?

Not always. Robots.txt controls crawling, but indexed URLs may still appear in search results if discovered elsewhere.

Where should robots.txt be placed?

The file should be uploaded to the root directory of your website.

Can I block all search engines?

Yes. A robots.txt file can instruct all crawlers not to access your website.

Should I include my sitemap in robots.txt?

Yes. Including the sitemap URL helps search engines discover important pages more efficiently.
