Robots.txt is the "Keep Out" sign for your website. It tells search crawlers which parts of your site are off-limits. Our generator helps you build a perfect file that protects your crawl budget without accidentally blocking Google.

Why Crawl Budget Matters

Google doesn’t crawl your entire site every day. It has a "Crawl Budget." If you waste that budget on admin pages or internal search results, your new content won’t get indexed. I always use Robots.txt to block `/admin/` and `/temp/` to ensure Google focuses on the pages that actually drive traffic.

Blocking AI Scrapers

In 2026, many site owners want to block AI bots (like GPTBot) from training on their content. I’ve included a "Block AI Bots" toggle in this generator so you can opt-out of the AI scraping race with one click.
