Robots.txt file update for your Google site

If you use hosting services for your site, such as various platforms to create sites, you may not need (or not) edit the Robots.txt file directly. Instead, your platform can provide a search settings page or another option with which you can specify search engines, whether your site needs to index.

If you want to hide or open the page of your site for search engines, look for instructions on how to configure the visibility of the page for search engines on the hosting platform. For example, you can find requests like "How to hide a page from search engines on Wix."

To update the rules in your existing Robots.txt file for your Google website, download a copy of your Robots.txt file and make the necessary changes.

How to download the Robots.txt file from your site on Google

To download the Robots.txt file, you can use several methods:

• Follow the link to your Robots.txt file (for example, https://example.com/robots.txt) and copy its contents to a new text file on your computer. Make sure you follow the recommendations on the file format when creating a new local file.
• Download the real copy of the Robots.txt file using a tool such as Curl. For example: Curl https://example.com/robots.txt-o rabots.txt.
• Use the Robots.txt report in the search console to copy the contents of your Robots.txt file, and then insert it into a new file on your computer.

How to edit the Robots.txt file for Google

Open the downloaded Robots.txt file of your site in the text editor and make the necessary changes to the rules. Make sure you use the correct syntax and save the UTF-8 encoding file.

How to download a Robots.txt file to your Google website

Download the new Robots.txt file to the root directory of your site as a text file named Robots.txt. The loading process depends on the platform and the server on which your site is posted. Check out the recommendations for downloading the Robots.txt file to the site.

If you have no rights to download files to the root directory, contact the administrator of your domain to make changes.

For example, if the main page of your site is located at subdomain.example.com/site/example/, most likely you cannot update the Robots.txt file at subdomain.example.com/robots.txt. In this case, contact the owner of Example.com to make the necessary changes to the Robots.txt file.
