# Search Engines Indexation
|
2020-01-07 12:38:22 +05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default your Gitea installation will be indexed by search engines.
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't want your repository to be visible for search engines read further.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Block search engines indexation using robots.txt
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To make Gitea serve a custom `robots.txt` (default: empty 404) for top level installations,
|
2024-06-14 05:53:15 +00:00
|
|
|
create a file called `robots.txt` in the [`custom` folder or `CustomPath`](../administration/customizing-gitea.md)
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples on how to configure the `robots.txt` can be found at [https://moz.com/learn/seo/robotstxt](https://moz.com/learn/seo/robotstxt).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
|
|
|
User-agent: *
|
|
|
|
|
Disallow: /
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you installed Gitea in a subdirectory, you will need to create or edit the `robots.txt` in the top level directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
|
|
|
User-agent: *
|
|
|
|
|
Disallow: /gitea/
|
|
|
|
|
```
