What is Over-Crawl Protection?

Crawling

Written by Jeff

It's a nifty feature that prevents your crawl from stopping cold if you run out of monthly limit for screenshots/pages.

It can be set in (2) places:
​

  • Individual New Crawls ( per crawl )
    ​

  • On the Team-Account Level ( globally )

When should it be used


If you're not sure how big the site is, and you need to crawl all of it, then we highly recommend this setting.
​
This will crawl only up to 30% more screenshots ( of your current plan's monthly limit) - *only if you happen to go over.
​
​Please note: Any overage will also be deducted from your next month's plan. Also once the 30% is reached the crawl will stop cold! So.. if you feel you need way more coverage, just upgrade.
​
Also -
Even if you have selected overdraft protection, you will not be able to create a new sitemap after reaching 0 credits.
