Help - How to block search engine bots (killing MaxMind budget)

Added MaxMind GEO IP yesterday 10k package, noticed there was around 100 when it only had around 7 friends view the LP. I spoke with MM and they told me to find some type of Robot / bot blocking code.

Or you could just install the binaries on your box.

Create a robots.txt and dissallow all bots.

If you spoke to them they could have linked you to their FAQ --> https://www.maxmind.com/en/faq#robot...usion_standard
