Frequently Asked Questions
Essential answers to technical ranking & search indexing questions.
Does robots.txt keep pages out of Google’s index?
No. It controls crawling. Use noindex (and Search Console removals when needed) to manage indexing.
What does generate mode create?
A starter robots.txt (or your custom rules) with Allow/Disallow examples and a Sitemap line pointing at /sitemap.xml on your origin.
Can I test Googlebot specifically?
Yes. Test mode evaluates a path against the parsed robots.txt for the user-agent you choose, including Googlebot.
Where must robots.txt live?
At the site root only—e.g. https://yoursite.com/robots.txt.
Should I disallow /wp-admin/?
Often yes for WordPress admin paths, but never block CSS/JS assets required for rendering.
Is the robots.txt generator free?
Yes. Generate and test modes are free on Zetawala for public sites.
