User-agent: * Disallow: Sitemap: http://mysite.com/sitemap.xml.gz Code (markup): know nothing about this please explain.
No, that's not what it means. There are three different functions here... 1) User-agent - browser, search engine, yahoo, google, etc. The "*" means all user-agents 2) Disallow: Are there directories or files you don't want crawled? Blank means crawl everything 3) Sitemap: sitemap location.
