Teoma Update

new db in Teoma in the last couple of days

[IanTurner]

I have noticed an update to the teoma database in the last couple of days.

One of my sites has just been included in SERPs

Thanks. We should do a run down again on their crawler and ip's...hint hint...

[IanTurner]

I will look to see what I can come up with.

Okay here is some data.

Teoma Crawler User_agent appears to be

teoma_agent1

Which I have seen from the following IP addresses over the last 4 months

63.148.5.88
63.236.92.153
63.236.92.145

Searching on Google on teoma_agent1 will give you some really nice results - lots of log files with the IP addresses.

Doesn't appear to be the fastest spider in the world. I am looking at 2-3 month cycle of spidering.

Bizarre,

Dropped by a severe margin, still in top 10, but where has the ranks gone, checked google, fast, altavista and wisenut, the site is where it is expected to be 1-5 for the key terms targetted.

Is Teoma, dependant on Direct Hit ? if it is, then i can see the problem, as the site has'nt got into DH in the last year, but gets reguarly crawled for the last four months > i stopped caring but if its going to have an effect such as this then, mmm, maybe i should start caring again.

CJ, I think Teoma works on inbound linking same as Google, but I have found little correlation in position between the two. Possibly this is due to the small DB size.
