Over the past week i've been redesigning a website of mine. Its pretty much an 'authority' website in the eyes of search engines & along with User registration, it has a search bar.
I recently started logging all search queries so in the event it returns 0 results for a user, I can go in and add that content to make everyones experience better.
I have noticed Googlebot/Amazon/MSNbot running search queries on my website, dozens of times per day starting about a week ago.
Has anyone else noticed this before? I find it highly odd/interesting.
