+Please don't hammer the API with an unnecessarily high request rate. For example, Spothole only queries the POTA API
+once every two minutes, so if your client is interested in POTA data there's no need to poll Spothole any more often
+than that.
+
+If you absolutely must be informed within seconds of a spot arriving in Spothole, please use the SSE endpoints instead,
+e.g. `https://spothole.app/api/v2/spots/stream`.
+
+If you want to handle different types of spot or alert differently within your client, please consider making a single
+request to the Spothole API to retrieve all the data, then filtering on your side. For example, call
+`https://spothole.app/api/v2/spots?sig=POTA,SOTA` rather than making two separate calls to
+`https://spothole.app/api/v2/spots?sig=POTA` and `https://spothole.app/api/v2/spots?sig=SOTA`.

   title: Spothole API
   description: |-
     Spothole is a utility to aggregate "spots" from amateur radio DX clusters and xOTA spotting sites, and provide an open JSON API as well as a website to browse the data.
-    
+
     While there are other web-based interfaces to DX clusters, and sites that aggregate spots from various outdoor activity programmes for amateur radio, Spothole differentiates itself by supporting a large number of data sources, and by being "API first" rather than just providing a web front-end. This allows other software to be built on top of it. Spothole itself is also open source, Public Domain licenced code that anyone can take and modify.
-    
+
     The API calls described below allow third-party software to access data from Spothole, and receive data on spots and alerts in a consistent format regardless of the data sources used by Spothole itself. Utility calls are also provided for general data lookups.
-    
+
     Please note that the data coming out of Spothole is only as good as the data going in. People mis-hear and make typos when spotting callsigns all the time, and there are plenty of areas where Spothole's location data may be inaccurate. If you are doing something where accuracy is important, such as contesting, you should not rely on Spothole's data to fill in any gaps in your log.
-    
+
     Spothole's source code is located at https://git.ianrenton.com/ian/spothole and the README there provides setup instructions if you would like to run your own copy. A demonstration server of Spothole is located at https://spothole.app.
