Brighton SEO: Lost Children or Hungry Psychopaths? What Do Searchbots Actually Do?
Slides from my April 13th 2012 talk at Brighton SEO are available at /about/talks/brighton-seo-visualising-searchbots/. I discuss how we know which URL's searchbot's request, how we can simply visualise these requests, and how we can help search engine robots really find all our content.
