Monitoring and Analytics Bots

Monitoring bots check uptime, performance and page changes on behalf of a site owner or a third party.

Should you block monitoring and analytics bots?

Of the 9 monitoring and analytics bots with a stated policy, 9 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.
