I wasn't sure where to ask this, but I was wondering what all the "robots" that are online are about? At the time of writing there are 63, while there's only 35 guests and 5 members. What are these "robots"? [Linked Image]

I always figured that that was the number of people doing google searches trying to work out how to fix their mowers and bots trawling through looking for keywords they use

No idea if thats correct or not

It probably something to do how the forum is setup and how popular it is. The forum I manage only has a handful bots. Just check there is only two on that forum. Bing and Google bots.
