Bots are employed for tasks that are <strong>automated or predetermined<\/strong> and do not require the <strong>intervention of a human<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The perfect <strong>example<\/strong> of bots is <strong>Google bots<\/strong> which crawl and monitor millions of web pages and websites. Apparently, manually scanning millions of websites is unfeasible, therefore bots take over them. Because they run over the programs, they are <strong>substantially faster than a human<\/strong> could be.<\/p>\n<p>Bots are really advantageous, but they could also be <strong>dangerous and infect your computer<\/strong> with malware, which are known as <strong>bad bots<\/strong>, and they are leveraged by cyber attackers to conceal valuable data and <strong>monetary gain from a website<\/strong>.

According to the experts, bot traffic on eCommerce sites accounts for <strong>more than 90%<\/strong> of all traffic because virtually all tasks are automated.<\/p>\n<p>Majorly, two tasks are assigned to bots: <strong>interact with the coming traffic<\/strong> (usually with humans) and <strong>gather information<\/strong> from other websites. When you visit an <strong>e-commerce site<\/strong>, there is no person involved from making a selection of a product to getting an order for that product.<\/p>\n<p>However, bots are not confined to these <strong>two functions<\/strong>; another prominent feature of bots is the <strong>chatbot<\/strong>, which is designed to address questions and provide <strong>responses to FAQs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Make_A_Bot_For_A_Website\"><\/span><strong>How To Make A Bot For A Website?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While knowing everything about bots, you might be eager to know how to make a bot for a website or for your own website.
