Will a search robot visit my site if it doesn't have robots.txt?

Answer 1

Of course it will. But if you do not add the site to the search engine database (via the webmaster console) or place links on other indexed sites, then you will have to wait forever.

Answer 2

Of course, it will, but it should be understood that search engine robots are constantly crawling robots.txt and Sitemap files in xml format, which should help them crawl and index web pages. Therefore, if you do not have a one-page site, then you need to create these files as soon as possible.
