Hi

How can I tell if one of my website visitors is a googlebot? Can I tell by IP address?

I have a visitor that has visited 223 times in the last 30 days........??

Kind regards
Sandra

Do a 'who is' check on the IP address http://cqcounter.com/whois/ this will tell you what network that IP comes under and the country of origin as well.
