Enter any public website URL. The result comes from the live response, not a guessed score or a generic template.

FAQ

What does this robots.txt checker test?

It fetches the public robots.txt response, reviews its crawler directives, and checks whether it points search engines to a sitemap.

Can robots.txt remove a page from Google?

Robots.txt controls crawling, not guaranteed removal from an index. Pages that must not appear in search normally need an appropriate noindex response that crawlers can access.
