Frequently Asked Questions

What is a robots.txt file?

A robots.txt file is a simple text file that lives on your website's server. It tells search engine crawlers (like Googlebot) which pages or files on your site they are allowed to crawl and which ones they should ignore. It's a key part of the Robots Exclusion Protocol (REP).

Why is robots.txt important for Blogger SEO?

For Blogger, a custom robots.txt file is crucial for preventing "duplicate content" issues. By default, Blogger creates multiple URLs for the same content (e.g., on the homepage, in archives, and under different labels). By using `Disallow: /search`, you tell Google not to crawl these lower-value pages, focusing its "crawl budget" on your unique, important posts.

Where do I put the generated code in Blogger?

It's easy!

  1. Log in to your Blogger Dashboard.
  2. Go to Settings > Crawlers and indexing.
  3. Enable the "Enable custom robots.txt" toggle.
  4. Click on "Custom robots.txt".
  5. A box will appear. Delete any existing text and paste the code you generated here.
  6. Click "Save". You're done!

What does "Sitemap" mean in the file?

The `Sitemap:` directive is a very helpful instruction for search engines. It points them directly to your sitemap file, which is an XML file that lists all the important pages on your blog. This helps crawlers discover all your content quickly and efficiently, ensuring your posts get indexed faster.
