Your robots.txt

Save this file as robots.txtin your site's root. Google and Bing cache robots.txt, so changes can take days to apply everywhere; OpenAI says search systems can take about 24 hours to adjust. OAI-SearchBot, OAI-AdsBot and GPTBot are configured independently — you can allow OAI-SearchBot + OAI-AdsBot while blocking GPTBot. ChatGPT-User is user-initiated, so robots.txt may not reliably block it.

Robots.txt, answered

Which bots must stay allowed for ChatGPT Ads?
OAI-AdsBot (required for landing-page review) and OAI-SearchBot (visibility in ChatGPT answers).
Should I block GPTBot?
Blocking opts out of training use. It does not affect ads delivery or search visibility.
Does robots.txt stop ChatGPT-User?
No. It is user-initiated and may bypass robots.txt. Use IP-range firewall rules for hard blocks.
