What is robots txt file in SEO?

[naksh]

The robots. txt file, also known as the robots exclusion protocol or standard, is a text file that tells web robots (most often search engines) which pages on your site to crawl. It also tells web robots which pages not to crawl. Let's say a search engine is about to visit a site.

Robots.txt is a text file webmasters create to instruct web robots (typically search engine robots) how to crawl pages on their website.

Hi Friends,
Web site owners use the /robots.txt file to give instructions about their site to web robots; this is called The Robots Exclusion Protocol. The "User-agent: *" means this section applies to all robots. The "Disallow: /" tells the robot that it should not visit any pages on the site.

Robots. txt is a text (not html) file you put on your site to tell search robots which pages you would like them not to visit.
