Frequently Asked Questions
What Traffic Patterns Should I Expect From coccocbot?
coccocbot follows an algorithmic schedule shaped by your site's popularity, update cadence, and domain authority. It generally spreads requests across recurring crawl passes, throttles itself to limit server load, and respects crawl rules more reliably than most other bots.
Does coccocbot Follow Robots.txt Rules?
coccocbot is expected to follow robots.txt rules, so a disallow rule is the appropriate first step if you want to block it. Automatic Robots.txt can add and maintain that rule, while Agent Analytics lets you verify whether coccocbot respects it.
Is coccocbot Used for AI Model Training?
Not ordinarily. coccocbot is not categorized as an AI training scraper or data provider, so AI model training is not its expected purpose.
Does Blocking coccocbot Affect AI Search or Citations?
Blocking coccocbot can remove your pages from the search engine it supplies. That may also affect AI products that rely on the same index, but it does not directly control unrelated AI search services.
Does coccocbot Access Private Content?
No special access. coccocbot can reach only content available to anonymous visitors and does not sign in. Make sure sensitive content is not public by mistake.
How Can I Verify a Request From coccocbot?
Agent Analytics tracks coccocbot visits in real time. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user-agent string contains "coccocbot". Look for recurring passes that revisit changed pages and discover new ones. Because coccocbot does not publish a verification method, any client can claim its identity and a log match is only a clue.
How Is coccocbot Different From Other Coc Coc Agents?
Coc Coc operates separate agents for different purposes, so each agent should be evaluated and controlled independently.
