+Search Engines Indexing
+-----------------------
+
+Sometimes, you may want to prevent some pages of your application to be visible
+on search sites like Google, Bing, Yahoo or Duck Duck Go. The robots that index
+these sites will first analyse the `http://your-site.com/robots.txt` file to
+know which pages it is allowed to index.
+
+Rails creates this file for you inside the `/public` folder. By default, it allows
+search engines to index all pages of your application. If you want to block
+indexing on all pages of you application, use this:
+
+```
+User-agent: *
+Disallow: /
+```
+
+To block just specific pages, it's necessary to use a more complex syntax. Learn
+it on the [official documentation](http://www.robotstxt.org/robotstxt.html).
