Anyone know about Eonpal?
 
I've received over 500 hits this month, and their site says if I am getting hits, my site is indexed in their adult database or my site was visited by eonpal crawler.

Should I care?

The program itself looks interesting, but I really do not know anything about it. What's the deal?

I don't know much about them, but I think it was established that they don't, (or they didn't), operate in an acceptable way.

However, that was a couple of years ago, and I haven't heard much about them since then.

Some information here from 2006 about blocking them, etc.

Ive been seeing minimal traffic on my sites stats as well. It was bought up on Shemp's board earlier this week as well by AJ Angel. My reply was simply to copy what their website states the purpose of them is for.

Code:

* Are you seeing traffic from EONPAL.COM? read more about it

Why do I see traffic coming from eonpal.com?

    * your site is indexed in our adult database
    * your site was visited by eonpal crawler

If you don't want these to happen, send email to exclude@eonpal.com and specify domain name(s) to be excluded


Why am I being indexed when I don't have adult content on my site?

Our crawlers start from purely adult sites and follow links deeper and deeper. If your site is directly or indirectly linked from this adult cloud, most likely you will be crawled by eonpal.


Why do I see referrer from eonpal.com if I'm (only) being crawled?

While crawling, we use referrer showing eonpal.com so you can easily block this bot on your web-server.

Eonpal crawler doesn't read robots.txt nor use specific user-agent because many of adult web-sites generalize all bots to be malicious and reject to give public material.
Why you shouldn't be worried in this case: Eonpal bot only thumbnails and indexes your material without copying the actual content. If user is interested into seeing it, we send him/her back to your site. By letting eonpal bot onto you site, you may later receive free traffic from our search engines.


We understand this may be a controversial issue but we plan to remain on side of porn surfers who demand automated porn search engines.


Does eonpal crawler go behind login forms?

No. Eonpal crawler doesn't activate login forms, you can be sure that paid/private content is never indexed.


Does eonpal steal my content?

No. We don't store any content on our servers. We only make thumbnails of it and index with reference to where it was found.

Exactly the same as with Google Images.
