robots.txt is a text file placed at the root of your website that tells search engine crawlers which pages or sections they can or cannot access.

Can robots.txt block pages from appearing in Google?

robots.txt prevents crawling but not indexing. If other sites link to a blocked page, Google may still index the URL. Use a noindex meta tag to prevent indexing.
