FAQ

  • Can robots.txt block a page from appearing in Google?
    Robots.txt can stop a page from being crawled, but if it is already indexed through other signals, it might still appear without full details.

  • What should never be blocked?
    Avoid blocking core pages, CSS/JS assets that are needed to render the site, and your main content directories.

  • How do I test my robots.txt?
    After uploading, open https://yourdomain.com/robots.txt in a browser and use Google Search Console’s robots testing tools to verify specific URLs.
