How we check public websites
The website check reads public pages to understand how customers can find and contact a business. It identifies itself as MEOAuditBot and does not contact the business.
User agent
MEOAuditBot/0.1.0 (+https://meoadvisors.com)What it fetches
Only what the public snapshot needs
Separate public services
Listing match facts and mobile site-speed measurements can come from the providers named in the result’s supporting evidence.
Robots in full
Ordinary checks follow the MEOAuditBot and wildcard rules in robots.txt. A matching business-email domain can allow an override for that run and domain only; it is not ownership verification. This never bypasses a bot challenge or a crawler opt-out. Published crawl delays are honored.
No challenge bypass
The crawler does not attempt or solve CAPTCHA or bot challenges. It records the check as not visible instead.
The website check does not submit forms, start chat conversations, send messages or place calls. An optional phone test requires a separate agreement.
Site-owner opt-out
Stop instant audits of a domain
Enter the domain to add it to MEO’s crawler blocklist. This stops future MEO instant-audit crawls of that domain.
