Limits worth knowing

Does robots.txt stop a page from being indexed? No. It stops crawling. A blocked page can still be indexed from links. Use a noindex meta tag (and allow crawling) to keep a page out of search results.

How do I block AI crawlers? Add groups for user agents such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended and CCBot with Disallow: /. The generator has a one-click preset.
