Hello there,
What you need is a robots.txt file on your site.
It's explained in the Flare Help:
https://help.madcapsoftware.com/flare20 ... otstxtFile.
Hopefully this will solve your problem for you.
Regards,
Rae

I'd like to know how using the robot.txt is differnet from using <meta name="robots" content="noindex">, please?

Using robots.txt it is easy to exclude a whole site, or section of a site. Using meta tags makes it easier to exclude individual pages.
Try a Google search:
