Wow.. how did you attract so many bots at the same time? :-)

it just means your sites getting crawled, doesn't matter how active your site is in search engines ranking / traffic wise.

it's always a good sign that your site gets crawled daily. that's just the norm these days with google, nothing special.

Yeah that's basically normal for google.. well atleast with me it is.

you might find this script useful:

CJ Googlebot Activity - [mod edit: removed - no self promotion of your own website]
Once installed, it will track when Google is spidering your website and more importantly, shows you the pages it spidered.

My site usually has 2 google bots, 1 MSN bot and 1 Yahoo bot crawling the site at a time. The most bots my site ever recieved was 54 (all of them were MSN bots)
