The "Disallow"in robots.txt file tells about that is should not visit any of th pages on the site. It considers to ignore the robot.txt especially for the malware robot that can easily scan the web for security vulnerabilities. It is the public file that anyone can see what section of our server we do not want to be get used by robots.

Actually, the whole command is Disallow: & Disallow: / where empty Disallow will allow all search engine bot to crawl your website where Disallow:/ will block any serach engine bot to crawl your website, you can also block a single page, folder or category from indexing.

Robots.txt file is basically a text file that stops the web crawler software. For instance, with a robots.txt file, you can stop Googlebot from crawling some pages of your website. Robots.txt file consists of a list of commands like allow and disallow, as a result of which the web crawlers understand which URLs they can retrieve and which URLs they cannot retrieve.

Web site owners use the /robots.txt file to give instructions about their site to web robots; this is called The Robots Exclusion Protocol. ... The "Disallow: /" tells the robot that it should not visit any pages on the site

You have to add disallow phrase for that page which you want to block.

Robot.txt is used to crawl the pages website. It tells that which part of the area should not be accessed. We can define the pages which should not be accessed by putting the disallow tag in robot.txt. Those disallow pages are restricted to visit. It also help to index the web content.

You can ask your web hosting provider to upload it under your control panel (root directory of the website) and webmaster will pick it automatically.

If you have access then you can upload it from your end.

Disallow in robots.txt file implies that the webpages listed under the disallow are not crawled by search engines. It is used to prevent search engine spiders from crawling certain webpages.
