Why Is SeznamBot Visiting My Website?
SeznamBot is adding new or changed pages to its search index. It may have discovered your site through links, a sitemap, or direct submission.
Should I Block SeznamBot?
No, unless you want to remove your pages from that search engine. SeznamBot supplies its index, so blocking it can eliminate your visibility and organic traffic there. Nearly every website should allow this category. For context, 6% of the top websites we track currently have robots.txt rules for SeznamBot.
How Do I Block SeznamBot Using Robots.txt?

Frequently Asked Questions
What Traffic Patterns Should I Expect From SeznamBot?
SeznamBot 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 SeznamBot Follow Robots.txt Rules?
SeznamBot 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 SeznamBot respects it.
Is SeznamBot Used for AI Model Training?
Not ordinarily. SeznamBot is not categorized as an AI training scraper or data provider, so AI model training is not its expected purpose.
Does Blocking SeznamBot Affect AI Search or Citations?
Blocking SeznamBot 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 SeznamBot Access Private Content?
No special access. SeznamBot 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 SeznamBot?
Agent Analytics tracks SeznamBot visits in real time. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user-agent string contains "SeznamBot". Look for recurring passes that revisit changed pages and discover new ones. Because SeznamBot does not publish a verification method, any client can claim its identity and a log match is only a clue.
How Is SeznamBot Different From Other Seznam Agents?
Seznam operates separate agents for different purposes, so each agent should be evaluated and controlled independently.
