Here's a

technical question. When I look at Who's Online, most of the guests appear to be Google Spiders. How much of the

server bandwidth is taken up by these things? Do they just sit there crawling over the site all day?

I couldn't really hazard a quess

about the bandwidth they use. It might be a problem with a normal webhosting account, but we have our own server

now (thanks to Webmaster), and both the store and the forum together use a mere 2-3% of our total system resources I

would guess. So, let the spiders crawl. Theoretically, they bring in new traffic. By the way, has anyone out

there discovered Love Scent via the forum?
