    The robots.txt file is a simple text file placed in the root directory of a website to instruct web crawlers (like those used by search engines) on how to crawl and index its pages. It tells crawlers which pages or sections of the website they can or cannot access. This helps manage search engine behavior, improve crawl efficiency, and protect certain areas from being publicly indexed, such as admin or private pages.

    A robots.txt file is a set of instructions telling search engines which pages should and shouldn’t be crawled on a website. Which guides crawler access but shouldn’t be used to keep pages out of Google's index.

    Robots.txt is a file used by websites to give instructions to search engine crawlers about which pages they can or cannot access. It helps control what content gets indexed and displayed in search results. For example, you may want to block certain pages from being shown in search engines, like private or duplicate content. The file is placed in the website’s root directory and is a simple way to guide how search engines interact with your site.
