Crawler information
SEOmiseBot
SEOmiseBot visits a website only because someone added it to an SEOmise project — usually its owner, their agency, or a business comparing itself with a competitor.
User agent
SEOmiseBot/1.0 (+https://seomise.com/bot)
What it does
- Reads
robots.txtand sitemaps, then follows internal links to audit pages: status codes, titles, headings, links, canonicals, structured data and similar on-page signals. - Checks that known backlinks still exist and records their rel attribute and anchor.
- Skips images, videos, archives, feeds, login pages and other files it does not need.
- Does not submit forms, log in, run checkout flows or try to reach private network addresses.
Crawl rate
At most five requests at a time to one site, fewer automatically when a site responds slowly. Crawl-delay in robots.txt is honoured up to 10 seconds. Each scan is limited to the page budget of the customer's plan.
Controlling SEOmiseBot with robots.txt
SEOmiseBot obeys rules for User-agent: SEOmiseBot and for User-agent: *. To block it completely:
User-agent: SEOmiseBot Disallow: /
To keep it out of one folder and slow it down:
User-agent: SEOmiseBot Disallow: /private/ Crawl-delay: 5
Changes take effect at the start of the next scan, because robots.txt is read when a scan begins.
