Quick Start

Quick Start

Verify free features

Confirm that user-agent blocking, robots.txt directives, and meta tags are working from the free plugin settings.

Enable Behavioral Detection

Turn on Behavioral Detection for catch-all bot detection beyond user-agent matching.

Enable Honeypot Traps

Enable Honeypot Traps - ScraperBlock will place a hidden link in your theme footer automatically.

Configure IP Allowlist

Add your own monitoring tools, crawlers, or office IP ranges to the IP Allowlist so they are exempt from blocking.

Set up Email Alerts

Configure Email Alerts to be notified when blocking activity spikes.

Review Analytics

Check the Analytics dashboard after 24 hours to review blocked request patterns.
