Robots.txt Generator
Create a valid robots.txt file to control how search engine crawlers access your website.
About this tool
The robots.txt file sits at the root of your website and tells search engine crawlers which parts of the site they may or may not visit. A wrong robots.txt can accidentally block your whole site from Google, so getting the syntax right matters. This generator creates a clean, valid file — allow all, block all, or block specific paths — and adds your sitemap URL so crawlers can find your pages faster.
How to use
- 1 Choose a crawler policy: allow all, block all, or custom paths.
- 2 Optionally add your XML sitemap URL.
- 3 Click Generate, copy the output, and upload it as robots.txt to your site root (example.com/robots.txt).
Why use this tool
- Valid syntax guaranteed — avoids accidentally de-indexing your site.
- Includes your sitemap reference, which helps faster discovery of new pages.
- No signup, no server — generated instantly in your browser.
Frequently asked questions
Where does the robots.txt file go?
It must be at the root of your domain: https://example.com/robots.txt. Search engines only look for it there.
Does robots.txt remove pages from Google?
Not reliably. It prevents crawling, but already-indexed pages can remain. To remove a page from results, use a noindex meta tag or Search Console removal.
Do I need a robots.txt if I want everything crawled?
It is not mandatory, but having one with "Allow: /" plus your sitemap URL is good practice and avoids 404 noise in server logs.
