    You probably have backlinks from a site already, was the domain owned previously? It might have been a pre-indexed domain and google was crawling it even when offline..

    My site has been online for a month and it seems like I get indexed multiple times a day (from week #1)

    I like your site, too. What CMS are you using to publish it?

    I don't think it was previously owned but I never checked that out.

    I'm using Joomla :D

    you have to renamed htaccess.txt to .htaccess, also you need to edit some lines of code inside the .htaccess file.

    Nice site. Having continually updated content encourages more frequent visits from Googlebot.

    I have noticed the GoogleBot is hitting all of my websites too. It almost seems like a daily thing.

    If you ping, you get bots. 33 times is not so much though...ping too much though and you get banned from a lot of places quick :)

    google bot hits my site few time an hour. This depends how many times you update your site. Google Bot hungry always for fresh contents
