Frequently Asked Questions
Should I Block BLEXBot?
Consider blocking BLEXBot only if you do not want your pages included in SEO databases. It does not influence how search engines rank you, and blocking it will not hide backlinks to your site because those are discovered on the linking sites. For context, 4% of the top websites we track currently have robots.txt rules for BLEXBot.
Does BLEXBot Follow Robots.txt Rules?
Yes. BLEXBot is expected to follow robots.txt directives, so a disallow rule is the appropriate first step. Automatic Robots.txt can add and maintain that rule, while Agent Analytics lets you verify whether BLEXBot respects it.
Does BLEXBot Access Private Content?
No. BLEXBot can reach only public pages, and authentication prevents it from accessing private content.
Why Is BLEXBot Visiting My Website?
Your domain appears in the ranking, backlink, or competitor data maintained by BLEXBot's operator. A customer may be tracking your site, one of your competitors, or a backlink that connects another site to yours.
How Can I Tell if BLEXBot Is Visiting My Website?
Agent Analytics tracks BLEXBot visits in real time alongside every other known AI agent, crawler, and scraper. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user-agent string contains "BLEXBot". Look for comprehensive site crawls that follow internal links. Because BLEXBot does not publish a verification method, any client can claim its identity and a log match is only a clue.
