So - what in the world is going on here? Do I really have that much bogus traffic? Is Google under-reporting for some reason or another? Could spiders and bots be accessing that page that many times in a day (day after day?). What do you think?
That might be the case if your site's content appeals to more technical people.
That is something I have looked at repeatedly (my logs) - and something just dawned on me. Urchin shows requests from this old forum system software I use on the Robots report page - so if Google is interpreting this the same way - they could be discounting that traffic. Very interesting... I have no idea why this cgi shows in my Robots report.
Thanks for making me think about this - this might be the problem.
I assume adsense is honed to be as miserable as possible and urchin as nice as possible to show people that their targets are all nicely reached.
Maybe it also simply shows that there is no communication between teams in G, who knows?
Urchin also systematically shows /www.example.com/index.php
/directory1/www.example.com/index.php
/directory2/www.example.com/index.php
/directory3/www.example.com/index.php
as a major entry points with miserable bounce rates.
Now I have tried to find this in my log files for ages, but can't find it. I assume it's some regex bug in urchin. Maybe to do with the index page they want you to give. Urchinservers are also so slow, that I now put the code at the very end of each page, as before it blocked loading the whole page. Buggy stuff methinks.
