SeolumaBot
If you found SeolumaBot in your server logs, someone ran a site audit — most likely you, or an SEO working on your site. This page tells you exactly what it does and how to control it.
How to identify it
The crawler sends this user agent on every request:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; SeolumaBot/1.0; +https://seoluma.com/bot)
What it does
- Requests HTML pages only — it skips images, video, fonts, archives and other binaries.
- Never submits forms, never logs in, and deliberately avoids action URLs such as
?add-to-cart=,/checkout,/cartand/wp-admin. Those are buttons, not pages. - Reads your titles, headings, meta tags, links and structured data to produce an audit report.
- Stops at the page limit chosen by whoever started the audit — typically 25 to 500 pages.
- Stores no personal data. It is not used to train models and the content is not republished.
It obeys robots.txt
SeolumaBot reads /robots.txt before it crawls anything and respects both the rules that apply to * and any rule addressed to SeolumaBot. It also honours Crawl-delay. Requests are spaced out and run at low concurrency, so a normal audit should be invisible in your load graphs.
Slowing it down
To put more space between requests, add this to your robots.txt:
User-agent: SeolumaBot Crawl-delay: 10
Blocking it entirely
You are free to. Add the following and the crawler will stop on its next visit — including audits started by other people:
User-agent: SeolumaBot Disallow: /
Worth knowing: this also blocks audits you run on your own site, since the crawler cannot tell who asked for it.
Still have a problem?
If the crawler is behaving badly — ignoring robots.txt, hitting you too hard, or requesting something it should not — write to [email protected] with a few log lines and we will look into it.
