The lastest release of Crawltrack now tracks indexed pages within Yahoo and MSN. And also it tracks the keywords and entry pages to your site from the search engines. Very cool. And did I mention that it is free?

So, while Google Analytics (or scripts of that kind), do a wonderful job of tracking human visitors, they cannot give you any information on spider (or User-Agent) behavior. Truthfully, to measure, or make the most of your SEO efforts, you need to know when a spider is coming in, what pages they're requesting, and how often there coming back (if ever). With this in mind, we suggest you try out the free Robot Tracker CrawlTrack.

Remember, a Web Analytics that is based on Javascript cannot track bots, so you will either need to implement this solution or get a bot tracker. Our recommendation for a software focused solely on bots is CrawlTrack, very impressive so far!
