Robots.txt is a text file that is inserted into your website and contains information for search engine robots. The file lists webpages that are allowed and disallowed from search engine crawling.

Use of Robots.txt - The most common usage of Robots.txt is to ban crawlers from visiting private folders or content that gives them no additional information.

Robots.txt Allowing Access to Specific Crawlers.
Allow everything apart from certain patterns of URLs.

The robots.txt file helps search engines understand which pages on a website should be indexed and crawled. This file can also be used to block the unwanted crawlers to search your websites.

Through robots.txt you can stop search bots to crawl your websites. You can also use meta robots to prevent your website or web page.

Robots.txt is a text (not html) file you put on your site to tell search robots which pages you would like them not to visit. Robots.txt is by no means mandatory for search engines but generally search engines obey what they are asked not to do.

The robots file tells search engine bots which pages to index & which ones to ignore.
