Crawler allowlisting

Some sites block crawlers by default. To ensure reliable indexing, allow AskVio crawler traffic through WAF/CDN/security rules.

  • Allow known crawler user-agent(s).
  • Allow crawler source IP ranges if your firewall needs static rules.
  • Permit sitemap and content routes without challenge pages.
  • Avoid bot challenges (CAPTCHA/JS challenge) on pages that must be indexed.
