Frequently asked questions

Is Robots.txt Tester free to use?
Yes. Robots.txt Tester is available on the free plan with 20 daily runs. Paid plans add higher quotas for repeat work.
Where must robots.txt live?
At the root of the domain, exactly at /robots.txt. A file placed in a subdirectory is ignored.
Does robots.txt block a URL from appearing in search?
No. It blocks crawling, not indexing. A blocked URL can still be listed without a description, so use a noindex tag when you want it removed.
Why do duplicate User-agent groups matter?
If a file declares the same user-agent twice, strict crawlers honour only the first group and silently ignore the second.
Can robots.txt hide a page from AI crawlers?
It can, and they generally honour it. If you want to be cited by answer engines, blocking them here removes you from the conversation entirely.
