Frequently Asked Questions
What does this robots.txt analyzer check?
It fetches the robots.txt file from any domain, parses all directives (User-agent, Allow, Disallow, Sitemap, Crawl-delay), and identifies syntax errors, conflicting rules, and SEO-harmful blocks.
Should I block /wp-admin/ in robots.txt?
Yes for WordPress sites. Block /wp-admin/ but allow /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php (needed for front-end functionality). Never block /wp-includes/ or theme CSS/JS files as Google needs them to render pages.
What is crawl-delay in robots.txt?
Crawl-delay tells bots to wait N seconds between requests. Google ignores this directive (use Search Console instead), but Bing and Yandex respect it. Setting it too high can slow indexing.
