BLEXBot - What It Is & How to Handle It

What is BLEXBot?

BLEXBot is WebMeUp's SEO crawler. SEO PowerSuite Link Explorer (webmeup.com) is the world's freshest backlink index, and the primary source of backlink-related data for the SEO PowerSuite tools.

BLEXBot is an operational bot rather than an AI crawler, so it does not directly affect whether you appear in AI answers. It still shows up in your logs, and bots like it help keep your site healthy and crawlable, which indirectly supports both SEO and AI visibility.

Like any automated client, BLEXBot consumes crawl budget and appears in your server and CDN logs. Reviewing those logs alongside your robots.txt rules helps you keep automated traffic deliberate and easy to reason about.

Want to see every AI bot hitting your site? Promptwatch turns your server and CDN logs into a live view of AI crawler and agent traffic, so you can watch ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and others crawl your pages and connect those visits to real citations and revenue.

How to handle BLEXBot

To control BLEXBot, add a rule for its user agent to your robots.txt:

User-agent: BLEXBot
Disallow: /
