    No, you don't need it, unless you want to block something specifically.

    A very good website about how to use robots.txt correctly:

    Dude you always need a robots.txt to stop crawlers from accessing specific pages of your website/blog like login page etc. because these pages create a negative impact on search engines and can lower your rankings.
