    Hi,

    I have a website and three Googlebots crawl it at the same time. It caused a lot of traffic and pageviews. How can I reduce this to one?

    crawl-66-249-71-34.googlebot.com
    crawl-66-249-71-33.googlebot.com
    crawl-66-249-71-35.googlebot.com

    Thanks in advance

    :)

    May be you can slow down your crawling through Google Webmaster Tools!

    I want traffic, but not three bots at the same time.

    That is only a good thing, people are looking for googlebot everywhere and u wanna only one. This only can give u benefits for higher rankins in different geolocations.

    Why not? :confused: what's the problem with google indexing your site?
    The more bots, more indexed pages in google results, meaning more traffic.

    People are getting weird:eek:

    Because the Googlebots make my site overloaded and sometimes slow.

    U should have to upgrade ur server or there is an option in webmaster tools in which u can set request per second and crawl rate etc

    But if google bot is crawling ur server u should be happy bcoz they may find something in ur site and wana send u traffic

    Why want to be one is there any benefit from crawl by one bot. I dont think so and no need to worry much on it. This process from google and can not control any body even by robots.txt

    Are three bots really enough to slow a site down? I regularly have several bots crawling at the same time and I haven't noticed a problem.

    No, it's just like having 3 normal visitors on your site.
