I have uploaded the standard robots.txt file to the root for my forum.
This is what is included:
User-Agent: *
Disallow: /moderation.php
Disallow: /ratethread.php
Disallow: /report.php
Disallow: /reputation.php
Disallow: /sendthread.php
Disallow: /usercp.php
Disallow: /usercp2.php
Disallow: /postings.php
Disallow: /newreply.php
Disallow: /newthread.php
Disallow: /editpost.php
Disallow: /private.php
Disallow: /search.php
That looks fine.
But also, my site is indexed by google and is showing pages like ratethread.php and misc.php, i'm not sure if these should be indexed?
Should i also add these files to the robots.txt aswell to stop them from getting indexed.
Also what about /images
/syndication.php
/archive/
/task.php
/css.php
/attachment.php
Should i also add the above files to the robots.txt?
Let me know which files should i add.
Thanks
