About Robots.txt Files:

Robots.txt tells search engines which pages to crawl and index
Place the file in your website's root directory (e.g., example.com/robots.txt)
It's a text file with specific syntax rules
Not all crawlers obey robots.txt rules (it's a request, not enforcement)
Use with sitemaps for optimal search engine visibility

Testing Your Robots.txt:

Google Search Console: Use the Robots.txt Tester tool
Browser: Visit yourdomain.com/robots.txt to verify
SEO Tools: Many SEO platforms can validate your file
