How do i block an entire category/directory with robots.txt?posted in On-Page Optimization
Anyone has any idea how to block an entire product category, including all the products in that category using the robots.txt file? I'm using woocommerce in wordpress and i'd like to prevent bots from crawling every single one of products urls for now.
The confusing part right now is that i have several different url structures linking to every single one of my products for example www.mystore.com/all-products, www.mystore.com/product-category, etc etc.
I'm not really sure how i'd type it into the robots.txt file, or where to place the file.
any help would be appreciated thanks
