Kick Scraper
Connect Kick Scraper with Webflow to detect and block bot traffic, protect content from scrapers, and filter analytics to show only real human visitors.
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
Frequently asked questions
Kick Scraper uses machine learning to identify malicious bots while allowing beneficial traffic. The tool blocks content scrapers attempting to copy proprietary information, spam bots submitting fake forms, and automated tools that inflate analytics metrics. Search engine crawlers from Google, Bing, and other legitimate services pass through the whitelist to maintain SEO performance. The bot management system distinguishes between different visitor types through behavioral analysis rather than simple IP blocking.
Client-side JavaScript execution can add varying overhead to page load times depending on implementation. Scripts can be placed in either the head or footer sections per Webflow's custom code documentation. Site speed metrics depend on snippet size and execution complexity. Kick Scraper does not provide publicly available technical specifications, rate limits, or performance benchmarking documentation, so verify actual performance impact directly with the vendor before implementation.
The whitelist system allows search engine crawlers to access content without interference. Machine learning algorithms distinguish between beneficial bots like Googlebot and malicious scrapers through behavioral pattern analysis. Sites continue appearing in search results because legitimate crawlers encounter no verification challenges or access restrictions.
Description
