§ I.

Identification

Its full user-agent string, exactly as it arrives at the gate:

User-Agent
$ Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; QlyzeBot/1.0; +https://app.qlyze.io/bot)

Qlyze does not publish a way to verify QlyzeBot's traffic. Treat its user agent as a claim, not proof: anyone can send it. Read Qlyze's documentation.

Qlyze publishes no way to check it, so every visit filed here is taken at its word.

§ II.

How to block QlyzeBot

Add these two lines to the robots.txt file at the root of your site. Well-behaved crawlers read it before they crawl, so the change applies from QlyzeBot's next visit. Nothing else on your site needs to change.

robots.txt
# Block QlyzeBot from the whole site
User-agent: QlyzeBot
Disallow: /

It obeys robots.txt and Crawl-delay. Email bot@qlyze.io to exclude a domain for good.

Or let it visit but keep it away from part of the site:

# Let it in, but keep it out of one room
User-agent: QlyzeBot
Allow: /
Disallow: /members/

Questions site owners ask

Does QlyzeBot respect robots.txt?

Yes. In 16 requests observed here it has read robots.txt and never fetched a disallowed page.

Will blocking QlyzeBot hurt my search rankings?

No. SEO crawlers build tools for marketers. Blocking them hides your links from those tools, not from search engines.

How often does QlyzeBot visit?

Here, about 0 requests a day over the last week. Visits to your site depend on its size, how often it changes, and how many links point to it.
