robots.txt
When you make a copy of your site for development/testing purpose, you don’t need search engines index your site as it will cuase duplicate content.
To disable indexing of a website by search engines, create a file with name robots.txt with following content.
User-agent: * Disallow: /
To Allow all robots, to use
User-agent: * Allow: /
To specify sitemap
User-agent: * Allow: / Sitemap: https://serverok.in/sitemap.xml
Crawl-delay
User-agent: * Allow: / Sitemap: https://serverok.in/sitemap.xml Crawl-delay: 10
Crawl-delay sets the number of seconds between each page request. In this case, the bot waits 10 seconds before indexing the next page. Bing and Yahoo support it.
Only allow search engines to index the Home page. Deny indexing all other pages
user-agent: * Allow: /$ Disallow: /
For Nginx web server, you can edit the location block and add
add_header X-Robots-Tag "noindex, follow";
