Access Control

Should I Block SiteAuditBot?

Probably not. Developer helpers are normally used to optimize or find problems with your website.

Using Robots.txt

You can block SiteAuditBot or limit its access by setting user agent token rules in your website's robots.txt. We recommend setting up agent analytics to check whether it's actually following them.

User Agent Token Description
SiteAuditBot Should match instances of SiteAuditBot
# robots.txt
# This should block SiteAuditBot

User-agent: SiteAuditBot
Disallow: /

Instead of doing this manually, you can use the API or Wordpress plugin to keep your robots.txt updated with the latest known AI scrapers, crawlers, and assistants automatically.
