    Hi,

    Just been crawled very deeply by FAST Web Crawler.

    Is there a list of who uses these results in the UK?

    Thanks

    Jon

    Looks like Lycos, AlltheWeb and Tiscali use FAST in the UK.

    I believe FAST is fairly popular among other European search engines as well. I'm honestly not certain as I don't deal much with non U.S. engines...

    Yes, Freeserve is now using FAST results after Overture instead of Google. This can drive quite a lot of traffic your way.

    Fast and Scooter were just simultanously deep crawling my site at about 2 pages per second each and (coicidentally) my SQL server crapped out.

    Thanks AltaVista & All the web. You should at least take a guy out to dinner (or send him some traffice for a change) before you down his server.

    At least it wasn't google or ink wink
