SiteDolphinBot
Spotted SiteDolphinBot/1.0 in your logs? That's our crawler, and it was there on the site owner's behalf — our customers ask us to watch their own websites for broken links, broken images and certificate problems.
How the bot behaves
- Fully respects
robots.txt. - At most two concurrent requests, with a pause between pages.
- Reads the sitemap first and crawls at most a few hundred pages, once a week.
- Stores no page content — only link status and technical measurements.
