User agent

Requests from serpstatbot carry a user agent like this:

serpstatbot/1.0 (advanced backlink tracking bot; curl/7.58.0; http://serpstatbot.com/; abuse@serpstatbot.com)

Device Detector identifies it with this pattern (a case-insensitive regular expression):

serpstatbot

Anyone can put any name in a user agent. Where the operator publishes IP ranges, checking the request's address against them is the way to confirm a visit is genuine.

How Vireo counts serpstatbot

Vireo keeps requests from serpstatbot out of your pageviews and visitors and counts them on its bot report under SEO tools, so you can see how much it left out rather than wonder why your server logs show more traffic.

Checked by running Vireo Analytics' own bot filter over serpstatbot's user agents.
