About the SiteBee site check
If you saw SiteBeeSiteCheck/1.0 (+https://sitebee.co/site-check) in your server logs, that was us. SiteBee helps small businesses across the US get a fast, mobile-friendly website, and we occasionally take a quick look at a business's public homepage to see whether it might benefit.
What it does
- Reads your
robots.txtfirst and respects it. If it disallowsSiteBeeSiteCheckor all user agents, we do not fetch anything else. - Loads your homepage once, plus at most one contact page, then stops. No forms are submitted and nothing is logged into.
- Uses Google's public PageSpeed Insights service to measure mobile speed.
- Checks basic things a visitor would notice: a secure (https) connection, a mobile layout, a clickable phone number, a contact form and an up-to-date copyright line.
How to opt out
