Important about Robots.txt
Before you proceed, there is one very important limitation for this file. This limitation is a specification of the ‘robots.txt’ file and it is not related to this plugin. Robots file must be located in the root for a domain or subdomain, it can’t be used if the website is in subdirectory of the main domain or subdomain. So, if you have installed your WordPress website in subdirectory of main website domain, then you can’t use robots.txt for that WordPress installation. Search engines can load robots.txt only from root of the domain, nowhere else.
