I have some homegrown code I use to analyze spider visits and it works great.

But, recently I set up a subdomain (using cPanel) and I cannot locate ANY Googlebot visits to the subdomain in my log files.

Google indexed the pages, but I cannot find a trace of his accessing the the subdomain pages ANYWHERE in my log files.

Is there some trick to making subdomains show up in your log files?

huh

Is the sub domain pointed toward a directory like www.widgets.com/blue to get http://blue.widgets.com/?
If so, you may not see visits to the actual subdomain or you may not have linked to the subdomain from the original domain.
Make sure you have a link from the domain to the subdomain like We have plenty of a href="http://blue.widgets.com/" blue widgets /a to make your creation.
I dropped the <> on purpose for posting.

Thanks for answering... I will try a link from the index page to the index page of the subdomain, BUTlet me provide more info and see if it helps.

Physically the subdomain is just a directory off the root of the main domain.

Many of the subdomain pages have recently been indexed so I know Google visted them. If Google visited, indexed and ranked them, wouldn't you expect to see the visits in the log files even if you don't have a link from a main domain page to a subdomain page?
