How to tell how often Google crawls someone else's site

[StreetwiseReports]

How can I tell how often Google crawls someone else's site?

You can't -- but the better question is why does it matter/is it important to you?

Dear Friend,

You can do this by browsing on your WEB log files and looking for the string "http://www.google.com/bot.html"

How often your site is crawled by google depends on many factors ie.:

1. How often you add or modify content.

2. How many links are pointing to your site.

3. and more.

In my experience this crawler freq. is a good signal of active and quality site.

Hope it help

To get a rough idea , check the cache date in SERPS for a couple of days ad see how often that changes.
