From http://forum.ucoz.com/forum/23-4687-1 :

"I have added my website to the search engines - Google, Yahoo and other. A week has passed but no one comes to my website. Maybe there is smth wrong with the sitemap or robots. txt?
Leave either sitemap or robots.txt, they won’t work well together. "

So...do i need to delete Robots.txt file if i use Sitemap? If yes - How? I couldn't find it in File Manager, where should i look?

Robots.txt file is a system file. If you still want to substitute it by your own, create a text file using notepad or any other text editor and name it "robots.txt". Then upload it to the root folder of your site by means File Manager or FTP.
Address of the robots.txt file is http://your_website_address/robots.txt

I m back on track...

This is an old info, I have deleted it. You don't need to delete anything, they will work together.

Find information on robots and sitemap in Google and read it.
