One of the cool administration features of the new software is the ability to see how many times the various search spiders visit us. On Nov 1 for example...
One or another of the Google spiders visited 1204 times, as in that many page views. MSN 232, Baidu (Chinese spider) 571 times, and a couple of others with smaller numbers.
And if we get really bored we can look at a looooong list of exactly what pages they 'indexed'.
I don't know how many times, if any, a government spy-der looks in. ??? They don't have to; they can use Google. ;D ;D
Cool info - I noticed the spider tracking.
Good I guess as we can't be found if we are not indexed....
