Ascii Art of 'OPEN ROBOTS TXT'

Welcome to OpenRobotsTXT

OpenRobotsTXT is an open archive of the world’s robots.txt files. By visiting domains and caching these files over time, we track how they change and which user agents access them. Our goal is to provide valuable insights, tools, and reports for webmasters, researchers and the wider internet community for open, public study.

Here is what you can do.
