MonkeyFindTrafficBot
Last updated 2026-10-31
MonkeyFindTrafficBot is the crawler of MonkeyFindTraffic, an SEO tool. It visits a website only because the site's owner (or someone they authorized) added it to MonkeyFindTraffic and verified it in Google Search Console, to audit it for search problems.
How it behaves
- It identifies itself as
MonkeyFindTrafficBot/1.0 (+https://monkeyfindtraffic.com/bot). - It reads and follows robots.txt, including rules for MonkeyFindTrafficBot and Crawl-delay.
- It fetches pages one host at a time at a modest rate and stops after a page limit set by the site owner's plan.
- It only reads public pages. It never logs in, submits forms or tries to get past access controls.
- To compare what crawlers and visitors see, the site owner's audits also load some pages in a regular headless browser.
Limit or block it
Add rules to your robots.txt, for example:
User-agent: MonkeyFindTrafficBot Crawl-delay: 5 Disallow: /private/
To block it completely, use Disallow: /. Questions or concerns: support@monkeyfindtraffic.com.
