Commerce and Marketplace Bots
Commerce pages show where site owners call out shopping and marketplace agents explicitly. These bots often indicate feed-like, catalog-like, or transactional discovery patterns outside pure web search. This subgroup page is tied to the current 30 days snapshot and is meant to be read as a structured robots.txt signal page, not as raw crawler traffic logs.
Snapshot window: 30 days.
