    Use these instructions in your Robots.txt:
    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /
    Allow: /index.shtml

    This'll only index your Domain and restrict other internal pages and subfolders....:)

    Your welcome....:)
    SHTML stands for Server-parsed HTML. It is a file extension for Web pages that contain server side includes (SSIs)...
    I hope you got your answer...:)
