I originally bought Honeylog to see AI crawlers and bots that normal analytics and WordPress can miss. After using it on real traffic, I realized it is much more useful than that. The strongest part for me is the evidence. I can see verified crawlers, fake bots, suspicious “human” traffic, the exact URLs being crawled, sitemap coverage, status codes and bot behavior without relying on JavaScript analytics. The report and raw-log tools are especially useful because they help separate real crawler activity from misleading traffic. Bot Conversions is also a very interesting direction because it starts connecting crawling activity with actual human visits. Honeylog has become one of the tools I trust when I need to understand what is really happening on a website rather than what a normal analytics dashboard assumes is happening. Two things I would love to see next: 1. More actionable insights — not only showing what happened, but suggesting the likely cause and the next thing to check. 2. Stronger custom views / actor classification so monitoring services, owned bots, SEO crawlers and suspicious traffic can be separated very easily. The product has real depth and the support has been responsive. I’m very happy I kept it.

Hi safex147,
Thanks for your review! We are glad you’re enjoying the product. Regarding the two suggested improvements, both are in our roadmap: we are in the process of adding new actionable insights and custom views will be soon released to let you segment the traffic as you wish!
I can honestly say that Lorenzo is the main reason I’m sticking with and actively using HoneyLogs now. He guided me through the entire setup process, even taking the time to help during the weekend.
But there’s more to it than that. When I set it up, it was like a wake-up call—it made me realize my website really needed some changes. It felt like I’d been sleeping in a bed of snakes: warm, gross, and honestly terrifying once you see who’s actually visiting your site. Bots, fake users, and spammy IPs were all there!
This made me realize I need to fix this problem ASAP.
By the way, the setup was easier than I expected (still took a lot to wrap the concept around the head and then implement it at first but now I know what to expect going forward), and this was the first time I moved my namserver to Cloudflare.
To sum it up, HoneyLogs not only shows me which bots are visiting but also gives me a way to tackle that big question every SEO and GEO expert wonders about: how can I optimize my site’s visibility? Highly recommended, and thank you Lorenzo for all you help!

Hi Andrew, I’m really happy you’re enjoying the tool and that it can serve as an useful power-up to your business! Helping you get set up was a pleasure.
I loved the "bed of snakes" comparison. I agree: it’s scary, but honestly that moment of seeing who's really on your site is the most valuable part. Now you know, and you can do something about it 💪
Much more useful than I expected, but there’s a learning curve
I bought Tier 1 expecting a dashboard of which AI bots were hitting my site. What I actually got was visibility into things I'd never seen before: whether Googlebot has found an article I just published, traffic HoneyLog identifies as Fake Human despite normal-looking browser user agents, and a world of 404s I rarely see in GA4.
The report builder is the standout feature. Instead of "Googlebot visited 9 times," I can ask which URLs, which status codes, and how long each request took. That's saved me from a couple of wrong conclusions already, including one case where 12 requests to an article turned out to all be Fake Human once I filtered by bot.
Two honest gripes. Onboarding is rough: I hit an unclear "waiting for aggregation" message with no sense of how long to expect, and ended up contacting support. HoneyLog is also much better at showing you what happened than telling you what to do about it. If you're comfortable digging into the data, that's fine. If you want a tool that hands you the next steps, it's not there yet.
I'm keeping Tier 1. It's already surfacing insights I'm not getting anywhere else in my stack, and the 60-day return window gives you time to let HoneyLog prove its value on your own site before deciding.
