About the Robots Meta Generator Online Free Tool

The Robots Meta Generator Online Free Tool creates robots meta tag and X-Robots-Tag directives from index, follow, archive, snippet, image indexing, and max-snippet settings. It helps draft page-level crawler directives.

How to Use the Robots Meta Generator Online

1. Select the indexing and following behavior.
2. Enable archive, snippet, image, or max-snippet restrictions when needed.
3. Generate the directives.
4. Copy the meta tag or header value into your implementation.

Choosing Options Correctly

Use noindex only when the page should not appear in search results. Robots meta directives affect indexing behavior differently from robots.txt crawl rules.

Common Use Cases

• Create noindex or nofollow page directives.
• Draft X-Robots-Tag values for non-HTML assets.
• Control snippets, archives, or image indexing for sensitive pages.

Quick FAQ

Is this the same as robots.txt?
No. Robots meta controls indexing directives on fetched resources; robots.txt controls crawling.

Can I use both meta and header forms?
Yes, but choose the form that fits the resource type and server setup.

Where does the meta tag go?
Place the meta tag inside the page head. Use the X-Robots-Tag header for PDFs, images, and other non-HTML resources.

Can I bulk-generate directives?
No. This tool is designed for one directive set at a time.
