Why Is deepcrawl Visiting My Website?
Your domain appears in the ranking, backlink, or competitor data maintained by deepcrawl's operator. A customer may be tracking your site, one of your competitors, or a backlink that connects another site to yours.
Should I Block deepcrawl?
Consider blocking deepcrawl 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, 7% of the top websites we track currently have robots.txt rules for deepcrawl.
How Do I Block deepcrawl Using Robots.txt?
Add this rule to your robots.txt file to block deepcrawl from accessing your website, or use Automatic Robots.txt to block all SEO crawlers at once. You can customize which pages are blocked by swapping out / for a different path.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Traffic Patterns Should I Expect From deepcrawl?
deepcrawl usually performs comprehensive, link-following crawls rather than spot checks. Visit frequency may rise while a customer actively monitors your site or a related market.
Does deepcrawl Follow Robots.txt Rules?
deepcrawl 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 deepcrawl respects it.
Is deepcrawl Used for AI Model Training?
Not ordinarily. deepcrawl is not categorized as an AI training scraper or data provider, so AI model training is not its expected purpose.
Does Blocking deepcrawl Affect AI Search or Citations?
Not directly. deepcrawl's expected purpose is not to supply an AI search index or retrieve pages for AI-generated answers.
Does deepcrawl Access Private Content?
No. deepcrawl can reach only public pages, and authentication prevents it from accessing private content.
How Can I Verify a Request From deepcrawl?
Agent Analytics tracks deepcrawl visits in real time. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user-agent string contains "deepcrawl". Look for comprehensive site crawls that follow internal links. Because deepcrawl does not publish a verification method, any client can claim its identity and a log match is only a clue.
How Is deepcrawl Different From Other Lumar Agents?
Lumar operates separate agents for different purposes, so each agent should be evaluated and controlled independently.
