    Hello,

    Im making an audit for a client and one of the topics is Robots.txt .We usually write something like “Your robots.txt file is not full”

    So i wondered – Is Robots.txt individually written for every site or it has to be written the same way for every site?

    You can use the same for the bots that actually respect it, if it is a very basic one. If you want to list pages you dont want indexed then you need one for every site. Anyway the bad guys always go for the pages you dont want listed. Lol.

    the most likely scenarios are:

    * There is no robots.txt and that’s not necessarily a problem
    * the cms or plugin cms create robots.txt file, that’s why many of them follow the same format.
