Bot Internet Indexing

What Bots Index Websites?

This page shows the bots visiting our secret root domain endpoint between 30th October 2022 and 30th October 2023. 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 30th October 2022 not a single company that considers themselves a technology indexing competitor found the website in the 365 days the experiment ran for.

BuiltWith found the website within 5 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.

AHREFs and Bing are excluded from the results as they indexed the site multiple times per day.

DOMAINSBOT has visited our secret endpoint 5 times since the website was created on 30th October 2022, 364 days ago. That is on average once every 73 days.

DOMAINSBOT's first visit was 10 days after the site was made live.
