Chakloon Net search

How to search the web with Chakloon Net, what a result shows, and how site owners control what our crawler takes.

What it is

Chakloon Net at chakloon.net is the web search of the Chakloon package. It runs on its own index of sites and news in 28 languages, gathered by our own crawler, ChakloonBot. You do not need an account to search.

  1. Open chakloon.net and type your query.
  2. Press Enter or choose one of the suggestions that appear while you type.
  3. Open a result, or switch to images to see pictures for the same query.

Each result shows the address of the site, the title of the page, its description, a short piece of text where your words were found, and the address of the page.

Other pages of Chakloon Net

  • Sources (chakloon.net/sources): the sites in the index.
  • Feeds (chakloon.net/feeds): the news feeds we read.
  • Statistics (chakloon.net/stats): the size of the index.
  • Our crawler (chakloon.net/bot): how ChakloonBot introduces itself and which rules it follows.
  • News (chakloon.net/news): see Chakloon News.

For pages in the index we also keep a text snapshot at chakloon.net/cached.

For site owners

ChakloonBot introduces itself as ChakloonBot in the User-Agent and follows robots.txt.

  • To keep pages out of the index, disallow them for ChakloonBot in robots.txt or mark them noindex. Pages are not taken into the index when they are disallowed, and sites that block our crawler are not shown.
  • To get your site indexed sooner, add it in Chakloon Console.
  • Complaints about the crawler: abuse@chakloon.com, with your domain and the time of the requests.
