Blocking crawlers

[ad_1]

I’m trying to block crawler bots from viewing my site but I still want the search engines to crawl it.
I’ve looked around and found the plugin bad bot blackhole but it caused the websites I did put it on to give me a 403 error every time I tried to edit anything (this kept happening after I removed the plugin as well).

Does anyone have any suggestions on something I can use that can do this job for me?
