To prevent pages from being indexed by search engines, you can add the following code in the <head> section of the HTML code for each page you want to block:

1
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">


This will signal to search engines not to index the page. Another alternative is to use the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header:

1
X-Robots-Tag: noindex


This header can be added to the HTTP response sent by the server serving the page. Both methods will effectively tell search engines to not index the page and exclude it from their search results.
