# ===== SPECIFIC BOT CONFIGURATIONS =====
# Because all bots inherit the rules above, you only need to specify 
# bots here if you want to treat them DIFFERENTLY than the rules above.
# If Googlebot, Bingbot, Yandex, etc., are allowed to crawl your blog 
# and main site, you do NOT need to list them here. The 'User-agent: *' 
# covers them perfectly.

# (Example: Only include this if you wanted to BLOCK a specific bot)
# User-agent: BadBot
# Disallow: /
