Hi everyone!

I'm trying to include the Google Adsense bot inside my robots.txt file. Adsense FAQs suggest that I need to copy & paste:

User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*
Disallow:

into the robots.txt file to allow the bot complete access. However, being the skeptical type, I wonder if the asterix at the end of the first line is necessary. Does anyone know if the below code is also applicable?

User-agent: Mediapartners-Google
Disallow:

Thanks!

If their FAQ's say use..
User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*
Disallow:


Then its best to follow that and use it..
The Asterik is there for a reason.. I think it could be something to do with that the bots each have different names so anything can follow the Mediapartners-Google.. But no sure on that
