Go to the Google Search Console > Index Status > Report > Advanced Mode > Cross-check robots.txt to change the number of illegal and allowed URLs on your site. Click Add new illegal rules and link to the Robot Exclusion section on the SEO main page. Use the GSC robot from Google Search Console.
To see what is rendered by the Googlebot User-Agent and the Browser User-Agent, use the Txt test tool and the fetch and rendering tools to see the most recent cached version of the page.
This is a file that you place in the root directory of your website that tells the crawler where to look for your website. You can either submit your sitemap to a search engine or direct the file directly to it so that crawlers can find it when they visit your site.
If you want to block Google image search, you can use Google Search Console's robot txt-tester to see if the Googlebot crawler searches the URL of an image.
The "Robot Exclusion Protocol Standard" is a text file that instructs web robots (search engines) on how to search pages on a website. The Robot Exclusion Protocol (REP), a group of web standards that regulate how robots crawl the web, access, index, and make content available to users, includes the text files that webmasters create to teach robots how to browse their site's pages.
The REP includes instructions on how search engines should handle links, such as the following or the following, for meta-robot pages, subdirectories, and site-wide instructions.
The robots.txt file was designed to tell search engines which pages should be searched and which should not, but it can also be used to direct search engines to XML sitemaps. A sitemap, similar to robots.txt, allows search engines that search and index your site to find all of your sites in one place. The robot.txt directive, like the sitemap directive, tells search engines where to look for XML sitemaps to help them find website URLs.
An XML sitemap is an XML file that lists all of the pages on a website that robots are supposed to visit. Sitemaps and index files are similar to sitemaps and index files in XML format, but the fact that they are both XML files distinguishes them.
Sitemaps are XML files that contain a list of your site's websites as well as metadata (metadata is information related to the URL).
Of course, you can submit your XML sitemap to search engines using their respective webmaster tools and solutions, but we recommend doing so manually because the search engine Webmaster Tool programs provide you with a wealth of information about your website.
It is your responsibility to place the sitemaps in a location where crawlers can find them. In the "Sitemap and Sitemap Index" section of the IIS SEO Toolkit's main page, click the "Create a New SiteMap Task" link.
It's a simple tool, but if it's not configured properly, it can cause a lot of problems, especially for large websites. If a large site has multiple sitemap indexes or pages with multiple subsections, grouping the pages into multiple sitemaps can make things easier to manage. Many tools can assist, such as the XML Sitemap Generator, which is free up to 500 pages but requires you to remove pages you do not want to include.
These files should not be used if they hide sensitive information that could be seen by pages the webmaster wants to browse but can't crawl through. Robot.txt files are accessible by adding them to the end of a web page domain and can be viewed by anyone within the domain, but they should not be used if they hide sensitive information that could be seen by pages the webmaster wants to browse but can't crawl through.
The robot.txt file is likely not found and should not be ignored if a file in the topmost directory of the website (the root directory of the domain or homepage) is discovered and interpreted as a user agent.
The site will not have a file to search for if the file does not contain directives prohibiting user agent activity, and the crawler will continue to look for other information on the site.
Google advises utilizing server issues that cause creep efficiency issues, such as Googlebot, which spends a significant amount of time browsing non-indexable areas of a website. For webmasters, the file robots.txt is important because it allows search engine robots to find pages on their websites.
The site-wide crawl behavior is dictated by robot.txt, whereas the page element level indexing behavior is dictated by meta-x-robot.
Before search engines use your site, the IIS Search Engine Optimization Toolkit provides an integrated set of tools to help you compose and verify the correctness of robots.txt and sitemap.xml files.
You will have a greater say in how your site is searched and indexed if you take the time to create sitemaps and add these files to your site, which will benefit your overall SEO. The files Robot.txt and Sitemap.xml are essential for search engines to understand and index your website.
Anyone who wants to improve their SEO should add a sitemap and a robots.txt file to their site. Take the time to figure out which parts of your site Google is ignoring so you can spend as much time as possible browsing the pages that are important to you.
The IIS Search Engine Optimization Toolkit includes a robot exclusion feature that lets you manage the contents of robots.txt files on your website, including sitemaps, as well as the site map indexing feature.
