Software Developers fantomaster.com Announce Upgrade of The fantomas spiderSpy™ Service: The World's Largest Database of Search Engine Spiders
Belgian based webmasters' software developers fantomaster.com announce the launch of the upgraded version of their fantomas spiderSpy™ service, now offering more features ranging from a fully searchable online SQL database to highly customizable email report generation facilities.
Spiders are special programs maintained by search engines to analyze pages on the World Wide Web which are then indexed and ranked, to be displayed as results links when users enter a search term.
The upgrade includes such options as choice of delimiters, of db fields (e.g. generate a list of IPs only — good for reducing system load on high traffic sites; or “search engine+UserAgent”; or “all information”, etc.). Subscribers will now be able to customize the spider list to their exact requirements, i.e. for easier and more reliable parsing, for targeted selection of spiders, etc.
“Comprehensive, verified search engine spider lists are crucial for reliable web site traffic analysis”, stated Founder and CEO Ralph Tegtmeier. “They are also playing an increasingly important role in server security: in order to distinguish between valid spidering activity and hacking or denial-of-service attacks, webmasters require a database of legitimate spiders.”
Tegtmeier's fantomaster.com has specialized on spider data verification since early 2000 and boasts the world's most comprehensive list.
“Obviously, spider data is also required for IP Delivery technology which is on the upsurge as well”, he added. “With the rapid advance of web site technology and design, more and more companies are resorting to IP Delivery because search engine spiders are unable to correctly index animated graphics, video streams and sound files.” IP Delivery is a technology which feeds optimized indexable content to search engine spiders only, while redirecting human visitors to the web site proper.
Subscription to fantomas spiderSpy™ includes a free, unlimited search engine spider verification service for optimized traffic analysis and IP delivery: clients can send in any log entry suspected of being a hitherto unverified search engine spider, and the fantomaster.com staff will check it out manually.
There is also a subscribers only online support forum available, where clients can get the most recent information on newly detected search engine spiders round the clock.
