Question -- Serge, I know that GoogleBot comes regularly to my site since I see FreshBot and a new date about every 2 to 3 days in my search listings. How can I tell if Yahoo or MSN come as often? I've never seen any dates on either one of them? Thanks.

Answer -- You can tell by simply looking at your server log files. Yahoo's search bot is called Slurp and MSN's counterpart is called MSN-Bot or something similar with the words MSN in them. Generally speaking, how often a search bot comes to a site usually depends on how often you update your site, although this can vary widely. I've seen sites that haven't been updated in many weeks and MSN-Bot would come at least 5 or more times a day!
