SureRank – Robots.txt File 

SureRank automatically generates a clean and optimized robots.txt file for your website, ensuring that search engine crawlers access only what they need, improving crawl efficiency, and protecting sensitive or unnecessary pages from being indexed.

What is robots.txt?

The robots.txt file is a simple text file located at the root of your domain that gives instructions to search engine bots on which pages or directories they are allowed (or disallowed) to crawl.

SureRank creates this file dynamically based on your site’s SEO settings, offering you the right balance between visibility and protection.

How to View Your Robots.txt File?

To check if the file is active on your site:

  1. Go to your website URL.
  2. Add /robots.txt to the end of your domain.

Example:

https://yourwebsite.com/robots.txt

If SureRank is active, you’ll see a file like this:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
Sitemap: https://yourwebsite.com/sitemap.xml
