Bot Internet Indexing

What Bots Index Websites?

This page shows the bots and automated agents visiting our secret root domain endpoint since 18 June 2026. To make it harder to find, the domain name was an obscure random string of letters and numbers on a rarely used TLD. The website loaded JavaScript, Images and Media and premium web technologies to determine how deep the site was being indexed.

Where are the competitors? 😳

Since our secret website was created on 18th June 2026, not a single company that considers themselves a technology indexing competitor found the website in the 95 days the experiment has run for.

 

BuiltWith found the website within 2 days of the site existing without any insider knowledge from ourselves. This means if you were using a competitor for technology tracking it will miss sites by a very, very large margin if it finds them at all.

414 identified user agents made 107,645 requests across 64,229 sessions from 9,806 IP addresses. Data last generated 21 September 2026 00:20 UTC.
