When does deep crawling begin?

[Roscoe]

Firstly - good look everyone with the update;)

I'm trying to work out when 'deep crawling starts', the reason I'm asking is because usually I get deep crawled after the dance, however my logs show that all 1800 of my pages have been crawled by googlebot 64.68.*.* - between the 2nd and 5th of march? I've never seen the freshbot look at all my pages, it's usually only ten or so of my main pages?

Have I been deep crawled already? or was this just my mate freshy.

deep crawl has not started yet but it is for sure to start in the next few days.

Fresh crawl has nothing related to predict Deep crawl. Since both works alone.

Does this mean that the freshbot looked at all 1800 of my pages? - just before the dance? That seams odd to me, especially that things are now changing?

GoogleGuy said that there would be a deep crawl after the update is complete.

Roscoe,

A lot of people have been reporting the same type of behavior from Freshbot over the past month.

Hi Roscoe,

I had a visit from FreshBot 64.*.*.* on the 7th March it also trawled over 800+ pages on my site!

So yeah looks as though the FreshBot is the guilty party...

KR,

Freshbot has been dropping by and acting like a limited deepcrawler for the past several weeks on my site (a couple pages are PR 5, most of the hundred pages are 3).

I dunno if I've passed some kind of threshhold, or whether the distinction between fresh and deep bots is breaking down.

(My site is pretty static.)
