What is your ROI on GoogleBot and other search engine bots?
I recently bloged about my ROI from search engine bots. Basically here is the results:
Botscore ROI: #1 GoogleBot .78 Search referals per spider. #2 Yahoo Slurp! .14 Search referals per spider. #3 MSN .01 Search referals per spider. #4 Ask.com 0.00 Search referals per spider. Curious what other large site owners are seeing? Would really like to see Shawns numbers on this  If you care you can read the full post here

Here are my #'s for one of my sites.
Yahoo! - 0.237 MSN - 0.056 Google - 0.045 My site will probably get around 30,000 search engine referrals this month. This particular site ranks best in Yahoo! and it shows in ROI I guess.

Google 76.6 %
MSN 12.8 % Yahoo 7.1 % Ask Jeeves 1.2 % Dogpile 0.3 % Google Images 0.4 % DMOZ 0.2 % Netscape 0.2 % Unknown search engines 0.2 % AOL 0.2 % Mamma 0.1 % The DMOZ one surprised me.  And actually, I would have expected AOL to be higher. I haven't checked these stats in a while but it used to be around #3 last year, above Yahoo, which always kind of surprised me.

Fascinating Stuff
Shoemoney,
I read your blog and this is really good stuff. In terms of follow-up strategies based on these statistics, what are you looking to do other than analyze the data for curiousity's sake? Will these numbers effect how you approach different search engines??? I guess I'm trying to figure out the application here that can enhance a website's utility. Perhaps there is non, but these figures simply provide a statement about search engines in general. In any event...I'm fascinated by it. I'm a new poster to this board and it was your data analysis that caused me to stop lurking and post a response. Thanks for sharing. The ClickBank Tutor

Ignore my post above. That's just percentage of referrals. I didn't read the blog first so I didn't calculate it as ROI.
