Robots.txt Optimization & Configuration
Your robots.txt file decides what search engines are allowed to reach. We review every crawl directive, confirm Googlebot and Bingbot can access your important products, collections and content, identify accidentally blocked URLs, and recommend custom rules that use your crawl budget where it matters.

We had no idea that some of our important pages could be affected by our robots configuration. The review gave us much more clarity.

Store Owner
Professional and easy to understand. The final report clearly explained what needed to be changed.
FAQ
Can robots.txt be edited on Shopify?
Yes — Shopify supports a customisable robots.txt template, and we tailor the recommendations to that setup.
Will this get pages indexed?
Robots.txt controls crawling, not indexing directly, but unblocking important pages is often the first step to getting them indexed.
Is there a risk of breaking something?
No changes are applied without your approval, and every recommendation is explained in plain language.
