As you know, the "robots.txt" file is a text file placed on the webserver that provides instructions to the web crawlers or spiders about which pages they can access and which ones they should not.

This online robots.txt generator will help you generate a robots.txt file for your website in seconds, with no coding skills required.

It allows you to control crawler behaviour with specific rules and exceptions based on your needs.

Hiding your pages from Google Search must still follow the rules. One of those considerations is to not use robot.txt as a way to bypass such restrictions as it could result in other pages linking to the hidden content, effectively indexing it and avoiding any restrictions you imposed with this file.

The lack of robots.txt prevents search engine crawlers from accessing information or sections of your website. Such a file is useful for SEO purposes and specifies what is not to be accessed by the crawlers.

Robots.txt files are one of the most effective ways to disable a section of a website, whereas meta tags can only be used to disable individual pages and files. You may find it easier to use both a meta-robots tag and a .txt file for this purpose.
