Reply To: Anyone else seeing crawl weirdness lately?

Kind of feels like yeah, I’ve seen some weird crap like that too. Not a full-on collapse, just bot behavior that looks kinda drunk — junk pages getting crawled, important stuff getting ignored for a bit, then a random burst like it suddenly remembered the site exists. Google’s been doing this on a couple of my affiliate sites off and on for months now, so I’m not exactly shocked anymore. Could be nothing, could be one of their usual “we’re fine” phases while the logs look like a dumpster fire. Just my experience.
