What is Feedbin?

About

Feedbin is an RSS reader service that fetches and aggregates web content, RSS feeds, email newsletters, podcasts, and YouTube videos to provide users with a centralized reading and content consumption experience. You can see how often Feedbin visits your website by setting up Dark Visitors Agent Analytics.

Expected Behavior

Fetchers visit websites on-demand. They're normally dispatched by apps to present metadata about a link (e.g. the title and thumbnail image) to a user.

Should I Block Feedbin?

Probably not. If you block a fetcher, it won't be able to fetch the metadata it needs to display a link preview. Fewer people will click on the link to your website without this.

How Do I Block Feedbin?

You can block Feedbin or limit its access by setting user agent token rules in your website's robots.txt. Set up Dark Visitors Agent Analytics to check whether it's actually following them.

How Do I Block All Fetchers?
Serve a continuously updating robots.txt that blocks new fetchers automatically.
Set Up Automatic Robots.txt

⚠️ Manual Robots.txt Editing Is Not Scalable

New agents are created every day. We recommend setting up Dark Visitors Automatic Robots.txt if you want to block all agents of this type.
