    My blog gets a lot of traffic that drive my bandwidth meter up. Not long ago i ordered for extra bandwidth and i am still getting warning message that my bandwidth will be up. I know that this is as a result of bots, i know that it is not from real visitors. What plugin can i use to block bots from visiting my website, but not search engine bots.

    Try to edit your robots.txt or change to another host.
