Spond Robots.txt

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Hey I didn't know this but have you gus looked at the robots.txt from spond.com?

# Notice: Crawling Spond.com is prohibited unless you have written permission.

User-agent: *
Disallow: /landing
Disallow: /images/
Disallow: /storage/
Disallow: /api/
Disallow: /client

Since you're explicitly calling http://spond.com/api/2.1 maybe it would be worth a reminder in your README.

I am pretty sure this does not count as "crawling".

A robots.txt file tells search engine crawlers which URLs the crawler can access on your site. This is used mainly to avoid overloading your site with requests

We are just using the API the same way as the website and app.
