CitedByAudit a site

CitedBot

CitedBot is the crawler behind CitedBy site audits: it crawls your pages, analyses them and reports what to fix. Its User-Agent header is:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; CitedBot/1.0; +https://citedby.eu/bot)

When it visits

Only when a site owner or a visitor asks CitedBy to audit that site. It does not crawl on its own, and it does not build an index of the web.

How it behaves

Block it

Add this to your robots.txt and it will not fetch any page:

User-agent: CitedBot
Disallow: /

To keep it out of one folder only, use Disallow: /folder/ instead.
