About our checker bot

WebDownStatusBot loads the home page of each service we track, once an hour, and records whether it responded and how fast. That's all it does. It never signs in, submits forms or crawls beyond that one page.

How to identify it

Every request from our bot sends this user agent:

WebDownStatusBot/1.0 (+https://webdownstatus.com/bot/)

How to block it

Add this to your site's robots.txt:

User-agent: WebDownStatusBot
Disallow: /

If you'd rather we remove your service from WebDownStatus entirely, contact us and we'll take it down.
