So in regards to increasing ranking, is there a benefit of using the robots.txt file to only index certain "marketing" page and exclude other content that may dilute your site. For example, lets say I have 10,000 pages but only about 50 or so are my marketing page. Would using robots.txt to only crawl my main marketing pages help place emphasis on that content?

Is it hurting my seo ranking if robots.txt is forbidden?
robots.txt is forbidden - I have read up on what the robots.txt file does and how to configure it but what about if it is not able to be accessed at all?
