Dumb
question which I hope I am posting in the right place …
Our forum (8.05a)
has a couple of topics with many pages … as many as 70+. These have curiously
high numbers of views. The ‘Active Users’ page normally shows over half the
Guests to be Search Robots. The percentage of ‘bots’ is much higher in off-peak
hours. I seem to remember reading a post here on this forum that indicated that
when bots/spiders view a topic they hit all the pages so 1 hit is recorded as
72 views if the topic is 72 pages long. Do the reported ‘views’ then really not
reflect how many human people are reading the posts?
Thanks in
advance …
