Hi,

Robots.txt : You can disallow search engine bot via robots.txt

in robots.txt you can put the list of web URL of your website that you don;t want to crawl by Google bot.

Thanks

Robots.txt file is used to tell search robots which pages you would like them not to visit. By defining a few rules in this text file, you can instruct robots to not crawl certain files, directories within your site, or at all.

The main need of robot.txt.file is to dictate how spiders or robots will crawl your website If on a website you do not use robot.txt file then search engine will crawl all pages on the website.

Robots.txt is a text file inserted into the website. The file lists webpages that needs to be crawled and not allowed to crawl by search engine spiders.

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.
