A robots.txt file is a text file, following a strict syntax. It’s going to be read by search engine spiders. These spiders are also called robots, hence the name. The syntax is strict simply because it has to be computer readable. There’s no reading between the lines here, something is either 1, or 0.
Also called the “Robots Exclusion Protocol”, the robots.txt file is the result of a consensus between early search engine spider developers. It’s not an official standard by any standards organization, but all major search engines do adhere to it.
