Robots.txt Generator is a free online tool to create a robots.txt file visually. It runs entirely in your browser, so your files never leave your device — nothing is uploaded. There's no sign-up, no watermark, and it works on any modern browser on desktop or mobile.
How to use Robots.txt Generator
The robots.txt generator helps you build a valid robots.txt file visually instead of writing the syntax by hand. Choose which crawlers to allow or block, list the paths you want disallowed and add your sitemap, then copy or download the finished file. It is free, requires no sign-up and works right in your browser.

Robots.txt Generator — frequently asked questions
Where does the robots.txt file go?
It must live at the root of your domain, for example example.com/robots.txt. Crawlers only look in that exact location, so placing it in a subfolder has no effect.
Does Disallow keep a page out of Google?
Not reliably. Disallow stops crawling, but a blocked URL can still be indexed if other pages link to it. To keep a page out of results, use a noindex tag instead of only blocking it.
Should I add my sitemap to robots.txt?
Yes, listing your sitemap URL helps search engines discover all your important pages. You can include a Sitemap line in the file even while disallowing specific paths.
