Support

I have tried to blocking different bots through Admin Tools htaccess maker ( I left default settings ). I used this feature in https://www.rakispilacourisltd.com/ website which in  July alone has taken from server resources around 45GB which seems to be coming primarily from bots. I have done that yesterday night so hope I will be able to see the difference by tomorrow morning on bandwidth. 

I need to also reduce crawl rate for bing bot and google bot. Is that something that the Admin Tools can also do ? 

 

 

Please look at the bottom of this page (under Support Policy Summary) for our support policy summary, containing important information regarding our working hours and our support policy. Thank you!

This is the code added to my .htaccess to block the bots
