Epic #83559: SEO enhancements in Core
Add robot.txt functionality
Added by Richard Haeser over 6 years ago.
Updated about 5 years ago.
Description
TYPO3 should deliver an out-of-the-box robots.txt to prevent certain directories (like eg /typo3) to be indexed. Besides that, it should be possible by integrators to block certain parts of the website to be crawled to prevent using crawl budget while it is not needed to be in the index.

It still would be nice if TYPO3 can render a (configurable) robots.txt
What the robots.txt could do:
- Automatically add the sitemap.xml, if configured
Add Disallow: foo
if page should not get indexed (discussed with Richard, potentially dangerous as Google doesn't "forget" wrong configs so fast)
- Add
typo3temp/var/
if in document root
- Exclude
typo3/
- Exclude
typo3conf/ext/*/Resources/Private/
- Status changed from New to Closed
A little note why we closed it:
It is best practise to keep your robots.txt as minimal as possible. So that is why we will not include anything in core currently.
