Questions
Does robots.txt hide pages from Google?
It stops crawling, but a blocked page can still appear in results if other sites link to it. Use a noindex tag to keep it out.
Do all crawlers follow robots.txt?
Reputable ones do. It is a request, not a lock, so don't rely on it to protect private content.
Can I block AI crawlers?
Yes — add rules for crawlers like GPTBot or CCBot. Blocking them doesn't affect normal search indexing.
