Frequently Asked Questions
Should I Block arabot?
Watch it first. arabot has not been categorized yet, so there is no track record to lean on. Check which pages it requests and how often, and block it if the traffic is heavy or pointed at content you would not give an unknown bot. Almost none of the top websites we track have robots.txt rules for arabot right now.
Does arabot Follow Robots.txt Rules?
Yes. arabot is expected to follow robots.txt rules, so a disallow rule is the right first move. Automatic Robots.txt adds and maintains that rule for you, and Agent Analytics confirms arabot actually follows it.
Does arabot Access Private Content?
Unknown. arabot has no documented scope, so watch what it actually requests. Repeated hits on login or admin paths are the signal to block it.
Why Is arabot Visiting My Website?
Nobody knows yet. arabot is undocumented, so until its operator explains it, its behavior on your site is the only evidence of its intent.
How Can I Tell if arabot Is Visiting My Website?
Agent Analytics tracks arabot 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 "arabot". Log the paths it requests and how often, since nothing about it is documented. Keep in mind that arabot doesn't publish a verification method, so any client can claim its user agent string and a log match is a hint rather than proof.
