Its purpose is to keep Yandex’s classifieds and review platforms accurate, current, and reliable for users. It honors the global robots.txt user agent (*) rule. RobotSense.io verifies YandexVerticals using Yandex’s official validation methods, ensuring only genuine YandexVerticals traffic is identified.
