    is your site new? maybe Google just hasnt fully indexed your site yet? If it's the site in your signature maybe Google doesnt like the duplicate content?

    Tearabite : Yes, it is the site from the signature. I still have some pages in supplementals because the site started with duplicate meta tags. In the meantime, i got 10% of the pages out of supplementals. It will take a while before the other ones get out too. But, even with pages comming out of supplementals, there is no change in the amount of traffic coming from google.

    ZeRo_CoOl : It may not be the only traffic, but we all know it's importance.

    mixke : I rank pretty well. I will give it more time, although i am not a very patient man, and google is annoying me :).

    Yep this is normal. In our sites I usually get this order of crawl frequency:
    1. Yahoo Slurp
    2. MSN
    3. Google
    4. Nagios <- (hehe this is for monitoring and Uptime Check-up ;P)

    The count for the number of times the Bots visits doesn't usually mean assurance in the SERPs. And as I have notices, as your site grows in traffic Yahoo and MSN tends to crawl your site more often than Google.

    the more pages you get out of supplementals the more often you get crawled by Google, I'm noticing this now as I work to get my pages out.

    I also have sites that receives more Yahoo traffic than from Google's especially for those new ones without much backlinks.. For me, it is hard to understand Yahoo..
