Question:

I have cPanel installed on my website.

<ol><li>

I went to the Domains section on cPanel

</li> <li>

I clicked on subdomains.

</li> <li>

I assigned the subdomain name (e.g : personal.mywebsite.com )

</li> <li>

It wanted me to assign document root folder also. I assigned mywebsite.com/personal

if i create robots.txt in my website root(e.g : website.com)

User-agent:

Disallow: /personal/

</li> </ol>

Can it also block personal.mywebsite.com?

what should i do?

thanks

When you want to block URLs on personal.example.com, visit http://personal.example.com/robots.txt (resp. https instead of http).

It doesn’t matter how your server organizes folders in the backend, it only matters which robots.txt is available when accessing this URL.
