Kick Scraper

How to integrate Kick Scraper with Webflow

Bot traffic inflates analytics metrics and exposes proprietary content to scraping. Kick Scraper addresses these problems by filtering non-human traffic from analytics while protecting intellectual property through bot detection algorithms.

Integrate by embedding custom code. The process is given as follows:

Embed custom code

Site-wide custom code implementation offers an alternative installation method when native app installation isn't available. Kick Scraper provides a JavaScript snippet after subscription that runs on every page across your site for bot detection and content protection.

Navigate to Site Settings → Custom Code in Webflow. Paste the provided snippet into the Head Code or Footer Code section for site-wide protection. Footer placement loads the script after page content, which can reduce impact on initial page render. Publish your site to activate bot detection.

This method enables:

• Site-wide protection through a single snippet without per-page configuration  
• Header execution before page content loads to catch bots early  
• Configuration control to remove or modify the snippet anytime through site settings  
• No element placement required, unlike custom code embed elements

Custom code access requires a paid Webflow plan for site-wide implementation.

Known issue: Kick Scraper can interfere with copy-paste functionality on your website, blocking visitors from copying content and preventing design teams from copying page elements for reuse. This affects design teams copying components between pages, content teams managing multi-page updates, and visitors copying content for research or accessibility purposes. Test thoroughly in a staging environment before production deployment. If blocking occurs, remove or reconfigure Kick Scraper through Site Settings → Custom Code.

The custom code method supports the same bot detection and analytics filtering capabilities as native app installation. Site Settings head and footer code sections support up to 20,000 characters each, which accommodates typical security snippets. Reference external JavaScript files through <script src=""> tags for longer implementations. Alternatively, use the custom code embed element on individual pages for page-specific implementations.

What you can build

Integrating Kick Scraper with Webflow enables accurate analytics through bot traffic filtering, content protection against unauthorized scraping, and automated security management.

• E-commerce product catalogs: Improve conversion tracking accuracy by filtering bot traffic from analytics, ensuring conversion metrics reflect actual customer behavior rather than inflated bot activity while protecting product descriptions and pricing data from competitor scraping
• Agency client portfolios: Provide clients with accurate performance metrics that reflect genuine human engagement while protecting client SEO investments by preventing unauthorized content scraping (note that the copy-paste issue may disrupt design workflows)
• Publishing platforms with premium content: Track genuine readership through accurate human-only analytics filtering while protecting original articles and research from content theft and maintaining discoverability through whitelisted search engine bots
• SaaS marketing sites: Filter bot traffic from analytics data so lead quality metrics and conversion rates reflect true human prospect behavior while blocking malicious scrapers and keeping content discoverable to legitimate traffic
