It is only the second time Robson has made it through to the fourth round of a Grand Slam.
She fought back from a nervous start and on one occasion threw her towel onto a chair in apparent frustration after losing a point.
After the match, the teenager told the BBC: 'I was getting my butt kicked basically. I was struggling to return her serve. I had to work as hard as possible and just stick with it.
'The crowd was amazing, I couldn't have done it without them.'
Robson returns to court later for a second round match with doubles partner Lisa Raymond after avenging her loss against Erakovic in Birmingham last year.
While Robson's family has been cheering her on at Wimbledon, her mother, Kathy, has remained in Greece where she has been looking after the family dogs.
