robots.txt Proxy Services

Robots.txt files require different rules for search engines versus AI web crawlers accessing content for training. AppWT robots.txt Proxy provides dynamic access control for Rochester Hills businesses, Royal Oak professional services, and Warren retailers. Our system allows Google indexing while restricting AI training bots, or vice versa based on your preference. We update rules as new AI crawlers emerge without requiring manual file edits. Sterling Heights companies control which platforms access content for indexing versus AI training purposes. Each configuration balances search visibility with content protection.

Starting at $97 /month & up

What is robots.txt Setup and Crawler Control?

We set up the small file that tells search engines and bots which parts of your site they may visit. Done right, it keeps private or duplicate pages out of search while letting your best pages get found. Think of it like a polite sign at the door that guides guests to the right rooms.

What does robots.txt Setup and Crawler Control involve?

We configure and serve a managed robots.txt with precise allow and disallow directives, crawler-specific rules, sitemap references, and crawl-delay handling where supported. A proxy layer lets us update directives dynamically, control AI and SEO bot access, and prevent unintended indexing without redeploying the site.

How much does robots.txt Setup and Crawler Control cost?

Starting at $97/mo & up. Pricing is a negotiable starting point.
