GOOGLE BOT is the part of the Google Search engine that looks through your site in order to add it to their search results.





There are some good, like the ones for GOOGLE %26amp; Yahoo's search engines, but there also more than several most people recommend you block due to them being used for more sinister purposes...... like harvesting e-mail addresses for spammers to add to their list of people to send junk e-mail to....... or to scrape content off your site to use on their own without permission
