How to block cludo.com bot

Three robots.txt options below. Pick the one that matches your goal. Each snippet lists every known cludo.com bot user-agent pattern so the rules apply regardless of which one the bot announces. Compliance with robots.txt is unconfirmed for cludo.com bot, so verify with crawl logs after deploying.

Edit robots.txt with care

A single misplaced line can de-index your entire site. Common mistake: pasting User-agent: * followed by Disallow: / blocks every bot, not just cludo.com bot, including Googlebot. Always paste the snippet between existing rules (not over them), keep the User-agent line scoped to cludo.com bot's patterns, and verify with Google's robots.txt tester before deploying. If you are not sure, ask a developer first.

Option 1: Block all access

Tells cludo.com bot not to crawl any URL on your site. Use this when you want the bot completely off your content.

User-agent: cludo.com bot
Disallow: /

Option 2: Block specific paths only

Keep public content crawlable but exclude sensitive or non-public sections. Add one Disallow: line per path. Replace the example paths with your own.

User-agent: cludo.com bot
Disallow: /admin/
Disallow: /private/
Disallow: /checkout/

Option 3: Slow down with a crawl delay

Crawl-delay is a voluntary directive that asks the bot to wait the given number of seconds between requests. Useful when cludo.com bot is hammering your origin and slowing the site down for real visitors, but you do not want to block it outright. The value is in seconds, so 10 means at most one request every ten seconds. Not all bots honour this directive (Googlebot ignores it; Bingbot, Yandex, and many AI crawlers do respect it).

User-agent: cludo.com bot
Crawl-delay: 10

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the User-Agent for cludo.com bot?

cludo.com bot identifies itself with the User-Agent string "cludo.com bot". Use this in robots.txt rules and server-side filtering.

Should I block cludo.com bot?

No. Blocking cludo.com bot removes your pages from this search results and directly hurts your organic traffic. The only legitimate use case for blocking is on staging or development environments where you do not want indexing.

Should I block cludo.com bot on my staging or dev site?

Yes — staging environments should not be indexed. Use robots.txt with "User-agent: cludo.com bot / Disallow: /" or apply HTTP basic auth. Better: use a noindex meta tag plus a different hostname (staging.example.com) so production is unaffected.

Why has cludo.com bot stopped visiting my site?

Common causes: robots.txt misconfiguration (accidental Disallow), server errors (5xx responses cause crawl-rate to drop), slow page load, soft 404s, or natural crawl budget adjustment. Check Search Console (or equivalent) for crawl errors first.

How does cludo.com bot decide which pages to crawl?

cludo.com bot prioritizes based on perceived page importance (links, freshness, content quality), site authority, and crawl budget. Submit a sitemap and ensure your most important pages are reachable from the homepage in 2-3 clicks for best coverage.

How can I tell if cludo.com bot traffic is real and not spoofed?

User-Agent strings can be faked by scrapers pretending to be cludo.com bot. Verify by checking the source IP against the operator's published ranges. BotSights flags spoofed traffic automatically and shows a verified badge per visit.

Does cludo.com bot respect Crawl-delay?

Behavior varies. Set Crawl-delay in robots.txt and monitor whether crawl rate drops.
