<p>Virtual Robots.txt is an easy (i.e. automated) solution to creating and managing a robots.txt file for your site. Instead of mucking about with FTP, files, permissions ..etc, just upload and activate the plugin and you’re done.</p>
<p>By default, the Virtual Robots.txt plugin allows access to the parts of WordPress that good bots like Google need to access. Other parts are blocked.</p>
<p>If the plugin detects an existing XML sitemap file, a reference to it will be automatically added to your robots.txt file.</p>


Virtual Robots.txt

Awesome, a simple solution to a common issue (site content managers who want to hide certain pages from Google search results).

Just a little note: in my case, the existing Sitemap created by the plugin "Google (XML) Sitemaps Generator" by Arne Brachhold wasn't detected.

Efficient and unobstrusive

I like the fact that it's so clean. Thanks for building it!

Does the Job

Virtual Robots.txt automatically creates a robots.txt file for your site. Your robots.txt file can be easily edited from the plugin settings page.
