Frequently Asked Questions
Should I Block SiteGuruCrawler?
Only if you want your own pages and outbound links out of those tools. SiteGuruCrawler collects the ranking and backlink data behind SEO tools, likely including ones you or your agency use, and it does not change how search engines rank you. Blocking it will not hide your backlink profile either, because backlinks are discovered on the sites that link to you. Almost none of the top websites we track have robots.txt rules for SiteGuruCrawler right now.
Does SiteGuruCrawler Follow Robots.txt Rules?
Yes. SiteGuruCrawler 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 SiteGuruCrawler actually follows it.
Does SiteGuruCrawler Access Private Content?
Login walls stop it. SiteGuruCrawler analyzes public pages for rankings, links, and site structure.
Why Is SiteGuruCrawler Visiting My Website?
Your domain shows up in the ranking, backlink, and competitor data SiteGuruCrawler's operator sells. If anyone tracks your site or your competitors in an SEO tool, SiteGuruCrawler visits you.
How Can I Tell if SiteGuruCrawler Is Visiting My Website?
Agent Analytics tracks SiteGuruCrawler 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 "SiteGuruCrawler". Look for full site crawls that follow your internal links. Keep in mind that SiteGuruCrawler 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.
