Is a URL blocked or allowed for Google?
One wrong line in robots.txt can hide important pages from Google. Paste your robots.txt, enter a URL and choose a bot to see whether the URL is allowed or blocked and exactly which rule decided it – using the same longest-match logic Google uses.
The most specific (longest) matching rule wins. If they are equally long, Allow wins.
No. It stops crawling, but a blocked URL can still appear in results. Use a noindex tag to keep a page out.
