Content Aggregators

Aggregators collect articles and links from many sites to build news feeds, read later apps and discovery services.

Should you block content aggregators?

Some send referral traffic, others republish your content. Check what each one does with your pages before allowing it.

Of the 10 content aggregators with a stated policy, 10 follow robots.txt and 0 do not. Bots that ignore robots.txt can only be stopped by user agent or IP at your server, CDN or WAF.
