dataforseobot

Please add "dataforseobot" to the bad SEO bots list. They have been heavily accessing our site, causing load issues. You already have "dataforseo.com" on your list, but DataForSEO are not minding that one. I have contacted DataForSEO and they replied with the following:

"Thanks for your email. I can see that you have added 'User-agent: dataforseo.com' to your robots.txt. But our bot is called 'dataforseobot'. :)"

Thank you!
