I have never used Google's webmaster tools for my site, yet I do see spiders. Time is also a factor. The robots usually won't find your site right away. One day is just not enough.

Activity - new content every once in a while - keeps them coming back. Just like people.

Bottom line: Build your website for humans. Spiders love that. And cookies.

This should continue here IMHO --> http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=527630.0 since you have been linked to a mod that will help your forum to be more visible That and the details above really tell you everything you needed to know

You need to get registered with google and submit a site map. Do the same  for Bing ect.

However, if you do wwnt to submit ine, you need an xml sitemap... which is generated by optimus brave, I think

i dont think it does that because i have been looking thru it....and i cant find anything like that because when i created a forum b4 i didnt really have to submit anything and my forum was indexed as well as my site being ranked on Alexa now der s nothing

Public pages are indexed...   some of the sites have a sitemap, some don't

again, a sitemap is not required

All sites are individual. You may have a popular site with a few good authority inbound links which means google will tend to crawl more often. If you have a site thats either new or run of the mill with low backlinks and only a few pages or topics then your not likely to get much of a crawler throughput.

One of my Amazon sites gets a crawler every 9 seconds, it updates its map daily and submits it to hundreds of sites when anything new is posted.

A support site I have gets a couple of crawlers a day because the site doesnt get a lot of interest outside its geographical area. This one also doesnt update to google.

A sitemap tells the search engines there is new content and also gets you scheduled for a crawl. You should update it regular if your small and after any major link changes or pruning. Once the sites popularity goes up then it will not be so bad.

I did absoultely nothing, I didn't even install Optimus Brave... Yet.
Still I get yahoo's crawler daily and sometimes also the one from google, even if my forum is small since my project has not been released yet.
