Expected Behavior

SEO crawlers analyze websites to gather search optimization data like keyword rankings, backlink profiles, site structure, and page performance. Most of them also build up proprietary databases that power SEO analytics tools and competitive intelligence platforms. Crawl frequency varies based on factors like site authority, backlink popularity, ranking performance, and whether the site is actively monitored by the service's customers. These crawlers typically perform comprehensive site scans, following internal links to map site architecture and assess optimization opportunities.
