Comments

• no need for Chinese or Russian searches
• the following should also be in badbots
• The editoral comments for each of the following entries are
• only opinions provoked by the behavior of the associated
• 'spiders' as seen in local HTTP server logs.
• stupid bot
• seems to only search for non-existent pages.
• See ezooms.bot@gmail.com and wowrack.com
• http://www.majestic12.co.uk/bot.php?+ follows many bogus and corrupt links
• and so generates a lot of error log noise.
• It does us no good and is a waste of our bandwidth.
• There is no need to waste bandwith on an outfit trying to monetize our
• web pages. $50 for data scraped from the web is too much
• never bothers fetching robots.txt
• See http://www.domaintools.com
• too many mangled links and implausible home page
• cutsy story is years stale and no longer excuses bad crawling
• cutsy story is years stale and no longer excuses bad crawling
• At best another broken spider that thinks all URLs are at the top level.
• At worst, a malware scanner.
• Never fetches robots.txt, contrary to http://www.warebay.com/bot.html
• See SolomonoBot/1.02 (http://www.solomono.ru)
• evil

• Yet another supposed search engine that generates bad links from plain text
• It fetches and then ignores robots.txt

• monetizer of other people's bandwidth.
• As is common with such, it ignores robots.txt.
• Yet another monetizer of other people's bandwidth that hits selected
• pages every few seconds from about a dozen HTTP clients around the
• world without let, leave, hindrance, or notice.
• There is no apparent way to ask them to stop. One DinoPing agent at
• support@edis.at responded to a request to stop with "just use iptables"
• on 2012/08/13.
• They're blind to the irony that one of their targets is
• <A HREF="that-which-we-dont.html">http://www.rhyolite.com/anti-spam/that-which-we-dont.html</A>
• unprovoked, unasked for "monitoring" and "checking"
• checks much too fast and too much including traps
• There is no need for third parties to check our links, thank you very much.
• "The World's Experts in Search Analytics"
• is yet another SEO outfit that hammers HTTP servers without permission
• and without benefit for at least some HTTP server operators.
• (supposed) SEO

• SEO
• http://www.semrush.com/bot.html suggests its results are
• for users:
• Well, the real question is why do you not want the bot visiting
• your page? Most bots are both harmless and quite beneficial. Bots
• like Googlebot discover sites by following links from page to page.
• This bot is crawling your page to help parse the content, so that
• the relevant information contained within your site is easily indexed
• and made more readily available to users searching for the content
• you provide.
• ignores robots.txt
• no apparent reason to spend bandwidth or attention on its bad URLs in logs
• no need for Russian searches and they fetch but ignore robots.txt
• no "biomedical, biochemical, drug, health and disease related data" here.
• 192.31.21.179 switch from www.integromedb.org/Crawler to "Java/1.6.0_20"
• and "-" after integromedb was added to robots.txt
• does not handle protocol relative links. Does not even fetch robots.txt
• does not handle protocol relative links.
• does not know the difference between a hyperlink <A HREF="..."></A> and
• anchors that are not links such as <A NAME="..."></A>
• ambulence chasers with stupid spider that hits the evil spider trap
• ignores rel="nofollow" in links
• as if " onclick=..." were part of the URL
• fetches robots.txt and then ignores it
• fetches robots.txt for only some domains
• searches for non-existent but often abuse URLs such as .../contact.cgi
• waste of bandwidth
