I've heard that I need a robot.txt to get the whole of my site on google and not just the first page, but what is a robot.txt and how does it work?
Yeah, I don't think you need a robots text to let robots search your site...Google frankly doesn't care about your privacy =p. They crawled my site within minutes of me setting it up.
Disallow: /oldhidden
Oh, lol I realize the author of this post probably forgot that they posted this or something like that but in case they do come back to look at it I found something else interesting in the x10hosting ftp, the default robots.txt file for each user is this:
User-agent: *
Crawl-delay: 10
Notice the crawl-delay that Smith mentioned

Is there anyway to tell google that when someone searches "Zdroyd" to have the first link my site?
keeps all robots and spiders out (I don't no Tamil but if this helps):
