AI crawler report: ebay.com
Scanned 2026-10-19T10:36:17.261Z (cached) · All reports · Run a fresh check
Summary
4 of 12 AI crawlers OK · 8 of 12 blocked in robots.txt · robots.txt present · llms.txt missing
robots.txt + llms.txt only (no live homepage fetches with AI crawler User-Agents); run a free check for the full test. CrawlDiff reports what our fetches saw. It does not guarantee AI citations or indexing. robots.txt is advisory: well-behaved crawlers follow it, others may ignore it, and it is not proof of live access.
Notes
Partial path blocks: 4 bots may fetch / but have Disallowed paths (up to 216 rules, e.g. /*_kw, /*?maspect, /*modules=SEARCH_REFINEMENTS_MODEL_V2, /*redirect=mobile). "OK" means the homepage only, not the whole site.

CrawlDiff Watch re-checks ebay.com every 12 hours and emails you when an AI crawler gets newly blocked or llms.txt breaks.
