Before a search engine crawls your site, it will look at your robots.txt file as instructions on where they are allowed to crawl (visit) and index (save) on the search engine results. Robots.txt files are useful: If you want search engines to ignore any duplicate pages on your website.

Your Robots.txt file is what tells the search engines which pages to access and index on your website on which pages not to. For example, if you specify in your Robots.txt file that you don’t want the search engines to be able to access your thank you page, that page won’t be able to show up in the search results and web users won’t be able to find it. Keeping the search engines from accessing certain pages on your site is essential for both the privacy of your site and for your SEO.

You might be surprised to hear that one small text file, known as robots.txt, could be the downfall of your website. If you get the file wrong you could end up telling search engine robots not to crawl your site, meaning your web pages won’t appear in the search results.
