SEO Web Crawler IP addresses

[sfchronicle]

What are the IP addresses for the SEO Web Crawler?

There is a firewall on my clients website before it goes live, I would like to crawl the site before it goes live, but need to provide the web crawlers IP addreses.

Thank you for your time

Hi Jason,

This is Megan from the SEOmoz Help Team.  Unfortunately, since we crawl from the cloud, RogerBot's IP address is changing all of the time so we cannot specify a particular IP address.  Also, we do need the site to be live before we can crawl it, but you could remove the firewall and block all other bots except rogerbot so it won't get indexed anywhere else before it's ready.

I hope this helps!  Please let me know if you have any other questions.
