Currently I have faced issued in one of my wordpress site that someone has setup bot to crawl my whole site.

Q: How I know that bot crawl my site?  
Ans: I have seen +500% clicks on my affiliate dashboard from my website. After that, I have login to server and check logs of last days and found one ip that are crawling my site and click to affiliate links.

Solution: I have blocked that ip through security plugin.

So is it possible same thing will happens in discourse website?

What i have to do for setup precaution for above situation?
