I see that most of my visitors are search engine-like visits. Why is Proz not capable of filtering these automatic visits?

Why would you want that? May 18

If the point of having a profile on Proz.com is to make yourself visible, search engines contribute to that.

What would be the point of being 'invisible' to search engines??

Search Engines are flooding my profile May 19

Because search engines are flooding my profile, this must be filtered in the “Search Engines” section and not in “Visitors”!

Stats May 19

Filtering them out, those SE bots (or crawlers) are not prevented from visiting our profiles.
The issue that has been complained about for years now ist that they are shown in our stats as "visitors", while the system should filter them in the Search Engine section as said.
