How often googbebot your sitemap? I have a site with PR4, googlebot will access my sitemap every 2-3 days. Is that good enough?
My site is fairly new (2 months) with over 5000 pages. Ecommerce site. Since submitting my complete sitemap Google has been coming by daily and indexes another 200-300 pages. Yahoo and MSN are also regular. And a few others come by every 3-4 days as well.
googlebot is getting my sitemap daily. google get your sitemap how often you want. you can choose it from your webmaster tools
I hadn’t checked before now, but a non-scientific grep of my access logs seems to suggest every one to two days for Google, Yahoo! about half that. I haven’t been actively pinging either.
my site gets new content on every day and lots, I was looking at my stats after I seen this thread and they come every day all day Last visit 23 May 2007 - 13:36 this is UK time I have noticed before that they are on all the time, the same with the other bots like yahoo, msn and them others.
