I’ve had issues in July with tons of requests from Singapore. I blocked an IP range, which worked for a while, but the problem came back harder in August (from Singapore, Hong Kong and Mexico) with high and unexpected CDN cost 😤 I noticed high pageviews from Amazonbot, DataForSeoBot, meta-externalagent, SeekportBot, etc… This documentation [Controlling Web Crawlers For a Site](https://meta.discourse.org/t/controlling-web-crawlers-for-a-site/244925) says: > [@Controlling Web Crawlers For a Site](https://meta.discourse.org/t/controlling-web-crawlers-for-a-site/244925/1): > > To obtain a record of untrustworthy web crawlers, you may refer to this list, [apache-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker/robots.txt/robots.txt at master · mitchellkrogza/apache-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker · GitHub](https://github.com/mitchellkrogza/apache-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker/blob/master/robots.txt/robots.txt) This list doesn’t contain some of my most visiting bots, but I have a question nonetheless. Would it be advisable to add this whole list to the **Blocked crawler user agents** setting? Is there a way to bulk add bot names from a `.txt` file? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-deal-with-sudden-high-other-traffic-in-site-analytics/379790)._
