What is SeekportBot?
About
SeekportBot is the web crawler for Seekport, an independent search engine operated by SISTRIX since 2014 that indexes web content to provide privacy-focused search results without user tracking or profiling. You can see how often SeekportBot visits your website by setting up Dark Visitors agent analytics.
Expected Behavior
Search engine crawlers do not adhere to a fixed visitation schedule for websites. The frequency of visits varies widely based on several factors, including popularity, the rate at which its content is updated, and the website's overall trustworthiness. Websites with fresh, high-quality content tend to be crawled more frequently, while less active or less reputable sites may be visited less often.
