Malicious bot and crawler blocking
Our web servers help protect your links by blocking malicious bots and crawlers.
-
Attack attempts and high-risk IP addresses
We automatically block requests that match attack patterns and access from high-risk IP addresses to limit disruption.
-
Data center clicks excluded from reports
Allowed requests from cloud hosts or VPSs still reach the original URL. Clicks identified as data center traffic are left out of reports so you can better gauge campaign response. Filtering coverage varies by plan.

Requests are shared across several servers.
A request that passes the firewall goes to an available server. The server looks up the link in the cache and redirects to the original URL.
If one server stops responding, another can take over.
In this example, server A stops responding, so the request goes to server B. Load balancing and health checks help limit the impact of a failure.
Suspicious requests are stopped at the entry point.
In this example, the blocked request stops before the link is processed.
This diagram simplifies how requests are handled. It does not show the actual server count, configuration or uptime.
Protect the accounts that manage your links.
Dashboard access is managed separately from link visits, through account authentication and organization permissions.
