Robots.txt is a text file which you put on your website to tell crawler which pages you would like not to crawl.

You need to create a file and you have to enter that URL which you don't want to crawl. Have a look below.

A robots. txt file tells search engine crawlers which URLs the crawler can access on your site. This is used mainly to avoid overloading your site with requests; it is not a mechanism for keeping a web page out of Google.
