I am not entirely sure, though, that you can make it a mandatory requirement for access to your site, because if a few major consumers do not use WebID for their crawlers, site-owners cannot block anonymous crawlers. Google, Bing and Yahoo Authenticate themself via DNS: Do a reverse lookup for the IP, check for some well known domains and then do a forward lookup of the hostname and check if it matches the IP. Much simpler to implement than WebID. config = { 'Googlebot':['googlebot.com'], 'Mediapartners-Google':['googlebot.com'], 'msnbot':['live.com','msn.com','bing.com'], 'bingbot':['live.com','msn.com','bing.com'], 'Yahoo!
