SeoNova Bot Radar

Do you know how many of your “visits” are bots? And how much money they cost you?

SeoNova Bot Radar classifies every visit into 5 buckets:

• 🟢 Humans
• 🔵 Verified good bots — the real Googlebot and Bingbot, verified by IP
  against the official ranges Google and Bing publish (a User-Agent disguise
  can be faked; the official IP range cannot).
• 🔴 IMPOSTORS — they claim to be Googlebot and their IP is not Google’s.
• 🟠 Data centers — IPs from AWS, Hetzner, Huawei Cloud… disguised as a
  person with a browser.
• ⚪ Declared bots — AI scrapers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot), SEO spies (Ahrefs,
  Semrush), tools (curl, python).

And the important part: it tells you what they cost. Enter your AdSense
RPM and the radar estimates how many dollars per month of junk traffic are
polluting your metrics and your ads.

Every Monday you get an email: “Bots cost you ~$X this week”.

This plugin only watches, it does not block. Built for shared hosting:
circular buffer of 1,000 visits, zero external calls in the visit path, zero
database growth. Interface in English and Spanish.

¿Sabes cuántas de tus “visitas” son bots? ¿Y cuánto dinero te cuestan?

SeoNova Bot Radar clasifica cada visita en 5 cajones: humanos, bots buenos
VERIFICADOS por IP oficial (el disfraz se falsifica, el rango oficial no),
IMPOSTORES que dicen ser Googlebot sin serlo, centros de datos disfrazados
de persona, y bots declarados (IA, SEO, herramientas).

Y lo más importante: te dice cuánto te cuestan. Metes tu RPM de AdSense
y el radar estima cuántos dólares al mes de tráfico basura están ensuciando
tus métricas y tus anuncios. Cada lunes te llega un email con el resumen.

Este plugin solo mira, no bloquea. Pensado para hosting compartido:
búfer circular de 1.000 visitas, cero llamadas externas en el camino de la
visita, cero crecimiento de base de datos. Interfaz en español e inglés.

External services

SeoNova Bot Radar works inside your WordPress. It only connects to a service outside
your site in the three cases below, and none of them runs until you switch it
on or press send.

Anonymous weekly statistics (SeoNova)

• What it is: SeoNova’s own server, on the seonova.pro domain. It tells us how
  the plugin is used so we can improve it.
• When: once a week, and only if you tick “Anonymous stats” in the plugin
  settings. It is off by default.
• What is sent: aggregated counts for the last 7 days (total visits and how many
  fell into each group), the verdict level, the plugin and WordPress versions,
  the panel language and a random identifier created on your site. Never your
  domain, IP addresses, user agents or anything about your visitors.
• Provided by SeoNova: privacy policy,
  terms.

Feedback form (SeoNova)

• What it is: the “Want to leave us a question or your opinion?” box at the
  bottom of the panel. It goes to the same SeoNova server, on seonova.pro.
• When: only when you write a message and press Send.
• What is sent: your name, your email, your message, your site address and the
  panel language. If the “attach my site’s diagnosis” box is ticked (you can
  untick it before sending), also the same anonymous summary as above.
• Provided by SeoNova: privacy policy,
  terms.

Reverse DNS lookups (your server’s DNS resolver)

• What it is: asking for the host name behind an IP address (for example
  ec2-…compute.amazonaws.com), to spot cloud servers posing as visitors.
• When: every 15 minutes in the background, and only if you tick “Reverse DNS”
  in the plugin settings. It is off by default.
• What is sent: the IP addresses of the busiest visitors (up to 20 per run), to
  the DNS resolver your server already uses. The plugin does not pick or
  contact any service of its own for this, and nothing goes to SeoNova.
