How to read this
- Why a crawl is not a citation. Being crawled means a page was fetched. It does not mean it was indexed, retrieved for an answer, or cited. Crawling is a precondition for visibility, never proof of it.
What this is not
- One site only. This is a dated record of one small site, not a benchmark, an index or a projection.
- Crawler identity is claimed, not proven. User agents can be spoofed, so unrecognised traffic stays unverified rather than being assigned to a named engine.
- A crawl is not a citation. Being fetched is a precondition for being mentioned, never evidence of it.
- Every figure is derived from this server's own access log. No third-party analytics are used, so there is no second set of numbers.
