Can someone tell me how i can check the search engine rebots visits in google analytics? if there any free web stats program which shows the detailed visits of robots? statcounter is nice but it does not show the robot visits. Please help me , thank you very much.
1. Analytics is javascript search bots cant run javascript 2. Awstats 3. Statscounter is the same as analytics, its javascript again, i know they have a html implementation 4. why not code your own stats counter for search bots? Its not that hard. Pierce
Awstats is cool, but we were running it and got our webserver hacked due to a vulnerability in it. They've patched the hole now, but since apps that get hacked once have a tendancy to get hacked again, I've stayed away from it since then. Never occurred to me that counters that use javascript wouldn't be able to spot bots - D'oh!
