## What is MojeekBot?

The web crawler for the Mojeek search engine.

Crawls pages for a classic search index. Blocking it removes you from that search engine.

Mojeek says it requests no more than one page per second from a site and does not support Crawl-delay.

## Should you block MojeekBot?

Allow it unless you want out of that search engine. Blocking a major search crawler removes your pages from its results.

## How to block MojeekBot in robots.txt

Add a group for its token to robots.txt at the root of your site.

A bot follows only the group that names it, so it ignores your `User-agent: *` rules once it has a group of its own. Repeat any paths you also want kept from it there.

```
User-agent: MojeekBot
Disallow: /
```

## How to verify a request is really MojeekBot

Anyone can send any user agent, so the string alone proves nothing.

Mojeek publishes the IP ranges MojeekBot crawls from. A request that claims to be MojeekBot from any other address is not MojeekBot.

Or check by reverse DNS: look up the hostname of the request’s IP, confirm it ends in `mojeek.com`, then look that hostname up again and confirm it points back to the same IP.

## See when MojeekBot reads your site

Bots don’t run JavaScript analytics, so a script tag never sees them. invisit records crawler reads on the server instead, through its server SDK or a Cloudflare Worker, and shows which bots read which pages, next to your visitors.
