Robots Txt Generator

Build a simple robots.txt file for your site, control which paths crawlers should skip, and add your sitemap address.

Use the tool

Note: a robots.txt file is a request to crawlers, not a security wall. Also note that Google ignores crawl delay, so that line is only a hint for crawlers that respect it.

A robots.txt file tells search engine crawlers which parts of a site they may visit and which parts they should skip. It lives at the root of a site, for example at the address that ends with robots.txt, and crawlers read it before they crawl.

This tool builds a simple robots.txt file from your choices. Tick the paths you want to block, add your sitemap address, and copy or download the result to upload at your site root.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Tick disallow paths: choose paths that hold admin pages, login pages or private files.
  2. Add custom paths if needed: type one path per line for anything not listed.
  3. Add your sitemap URL: this helps crawlers find your sitemap file.
  4. Click Generate Robots File: copy the output or download it as robots.txt, then upload it to your site root.

Good Practice Tips

  • Do not block useful pages: blocking a page that should rank can hide it from search results.
  • Robots is not security: anyone can read a robots.txt file, so never use it to hide truly private data. Use a password or a login for that.
  • Test after upload: open the file in a browser at your site root to confirm it uploaded to the right place.
  • Keep it simple: most small sites only need a few disallow rules and a sitemap line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does robots.txt block a page from Google completely?

No. Robots.txt asks crawlers not to visit a path, but it is a request, not a guarantee, and it is not a way to hide private data.

Where do I upload robots.txt?

Upload it at the root of your site, so it opens at the address that ends with robots.txt, not inside a subfolder.

Should I disallow my login page?

In most cases yes, a login page gives searchers nothing useful, so blocking it keeps crawlers focused on your real content.

Is my input uploaded to a server?

No. Everything runs in your browser on your own device, so your text never leaves your computer.
