Choose your install mode.

Use this anti-bot setup table when you need practical bot traffic filtering, fake click protection, or landing page bot protection without guessing where the first decision should run.

Situation Recommended mode Why
Protect a normal PHP landing page PHP only Server decides before the page renders.
Need browser behavior signals PHP + JS Combines server-side routing with browser-side context.
Screen traffic on a redirect or tracking domain Smart Link PHP Checks the click before sending traffic to the destination.
Need link-layer plus browser signals Smart Link PHP + JS Adds richer context before the final destination opens.
Public docs explain the rollout model. Exact install packages are available inside the KillBot dashboard after signup, so scripts stay tied to the account, route, and active version.
Safer rollout

First route checklist

KillBot is designed for safer invalid traffic control. Start with one route, confirm the first traffic decision logs, then widen coverage after the pattern is clear.

  • Create one Protected Page or Smart Link.
  • Set the safe redirect URL.
  • Start broad risky categories in redirect mode.
  • Review the first 20-50 decisions in Traffic Log.
  • Move stricter categories to block only after evidence.
  • Confirm billing/check limit behavior.

FAQ

Short answers before you install.

What should I install first?

Start with one Protected Page or one Smart Link on the highest-risk traffic path, then review Traffic Log before expanding.

Should I use Protected Pages or Smart Links?

Use Protected Pages when traffic lands directly on the real page. Use Smart Links when traffic first reaches a routing, tracking, redirect, or campaign domain.

Does KillBot block risky traffic by default?

No. KillBot is designed for safer rollout. Broad risky categories can start in redirect mode first, then move to stricter handling after Traffic Log confirms the pattern.

Where do I download the install scripts?

Install packages are available inside the authenticated dashboard after signup. Public docs explain the model, while the dashboard provides account-specific scripts.

What happens when I reach my monthly check limit?

Full checks pause and traffic is allowed by default until the plan renews or the account upgrades. The dashboard should warn users before this happens.
