The Automated Content Access Protocol (ACAP) debuted today as a set of improvements to deficiencies seen in the robots.txt protocol currently observed by search crawlers.
Representatives from major crawler-based search engines cover how to submit and feed them content, with plenty of Q&A time to cover issues related to ranking well and being indexed.
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to leave some code in your web site to tell the search engine spider crawlers to make your site number one?
In the pursuit of online power, manipulation, and control, a new breed of web crawler's hiding in the dark alleys of the web are being brought forth.
How do they find those wonderful sites? A question many interested in the internet search world often ponder is also answered fairly easy. It's all in the way they crawl.
My favorite sessions at the SES conference were those where Google and Yahoo appeared on the same panels. You could almost always count on some crackling tension between the two search giants.
The "Meet The Crawlers" session was no exception.
