I have set this now

it's not clear to me when exactly this html meta tag needs to be set

<html>
  <head>
     <meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow,noarchive,nosnippet"/>

because I would assume on pages where this is set, these pages are not 
idexed.

And how does this interact with the robots.txt file?

can you explain this a bit more?

Thanks
