    Hi,

    I am very, very new at site creation and have only just uploaded my very first brand new site, so please excuse me if my questions seem a bit naive.

    How can I know, from my webstats, which bot has read my site?

    The obvious ones, like google or msn are written, but what are:

    1. BLA
    2. ia_archiver-web.archive.org
    3. MetaTagRobot

    As I said, my site is very, very new, so what other ones should I expect over the coming weeks?

    And the million dollar question, should anybody know the answer, is how long after they appear in my stats should I expect to receive visitors from search engines?

    Google, Yahoo, MSN will send people your way within a few days to a week or so.

    IA_Archiver - the ID includes a website URL. Check that URL out!

    Some bots will be scraping email addresses from all of the mailto: links in your site. They will then add your email address to spammers junk mailing lists. Take steps to protect yourself from that (clickable email link written by javascript code, or email address shown inside non-clickable image, or use a mailform with a backend mailsend script {with the email address coded in the backend script, NOT in the on-page HTML code}).
