What's the freshbot turnaround time?

New site crawled over a week ago.

I've set up a brand new site with a few 1000 pages. I liked it from the PR 6 homepage from an existign site with a few deep links into categories. google hit it within the hour (so did scooter, even more so) and spidered a few 1000 pages.
This started on the 3rd. How much longer will I have to wait for the pages to appear? And what it the best search to check?
mydomain
link:www.mydomain.com
allinurl:mydomain
?

Thanks, I'm gettign anxious.

Don't get agita yet, killroy. About the only thing you can do right now is sit back and wait.

If the site only started to get spidered by freshbot on the 3rd then it will?probably? not be included in the main index at the next update (soon, maybe?).

The next deep crawl by googlebot should come soon after the next update and there's a chance the site might be included in the?May? update. If not, June.

You'll notice all the?s and wishy-washy qualifications. That's the nature of the beast.

The best search to run is probably the title of your index page. My site has been thoroughly freshbotted, and ranked in the SERPs, but is not "in the index" yet. A search for link:www.mysite.net turns up no results, even though I have about 30 some pages showing up in Google results (every page on my site links back to the index page). But it should show up high on a search for your exact title (in quotes), especially if it's an uncommon title.

Don't stress over it.

Freshbot hits my site almost everyday but freshbot merely enhances the index (it seems).

Patience grasshopper.
