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