FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about robots.txt monitoring.

How often do you check robots.txt files?

We monitor your robots.txt files daily. This means any changes are detected within 24 hours maximum, giving you rapid notification of potential SEO issues.

What changes do you detect in robots.txt?

We track all changes including User-agent directives, Disallow/Allow rules, Sitemap declarations, Crawl-delay settings, and any other robots.txt directives.

Do you monitor new robots.txt files?

Yes! When you add a domain without a robots.txt file, we'll automatically detect when the file is created and start monitoring it, sending you a welcome notification with the initial content.

How many domains can I monitor?

You can monitor unlimited domains on all plans (within the limits of your plan).

Do you keep a history of robots.txt changes?

Yes, we store the complete history of all robots.txt changes for each monitored domain. You can see the evolution of your robots.txt file over time with timestamps + visual diffs.

What happens if my robots.txt becomes inaccessible?

We'll immediately alert you if your robots.txt file returns a 404 error or becomes inaccessible. This helps you catch issues quickly.

Is this useful during site migrations?

Absolutely! During site migrations, robots.txt rules can accidentally change when moving to new hosting or CMS platforms. Our monitoring ensures you catch unintended changes that could block search engines.
