  • A way to tell if spiders are a part of the "guests"

    I semi-recently moved my site to its own server. I removed the robots.txt file as well. The user base has steadily been increasing since the site isn't going down all the time now. I was looking and saw on January 1 my users hit a high of around 1,000 . Right now I have this:

    353 (133 members and 220 guests)

    Is there a way to tell if bots/spiders are a part of those "guests" so that I can tell if this is a real deal user level or just a bunch of bots? Thanks!

    Go to online.php and show only guests, and then show useragent.

    This will reveal some more info about the guests.

      And yes.

      Guests = guests+bots
