Forum URL: varietygalore.boards.net/Twenty-four guests suddenly appeared statistically on my home page when I posted my Lichess link to my thread on Twitter. Out of those twenty four, seven were responding to other threads, while the remaining seventeen remained untraceable or invisible. Not one was linked to my Lichess thread which seems to have initiated the response. date 6/24/2024 Time approx. 5 o'clock pm Something is wrong.

It just happened again. !5 guests are being kept invisible and only three are showing, while none are attributed to the Lichess thread. What am I supposed to think? BTW You have no clue why this is going on?

When you share a page to twitter, or facebook etc, there will be a number of bots that will then be sent. For example, if you share a page on twitter, as you have done, there will be bots sent to scrape that page for information, such as to display an image with the share, the name of the site/artical, and perhaps some of the content.
What i do not know is why so many are sent.

If my Twitter post in relation to chess triggered the bot assignment response, then why are the bots being assigned to other categories and the majority being kept invisible as if assigned nowhere instead of being assigned to my chess post?

Why weren't those invisible seventeen scraping my chess page?

Radrook - If posting a link triggers bots to check out the source of the link, they are not just "looking" at the thread you linked to. They most likely are determining if your forum is something they want to be associated with. It's all about SEO (search ranking) for them. This is the "authoritative" aspect of SEO. Authority in SEO refers to the perceived trustworthiness and credibility of online content or a website. If the site you posted the link on believes it's beneficial to be associated with your forum, then when search engine bots check them out they'll say hey check out this site too (your forum). If the site you posted on doesn't believe your forum will give theirs any ranking value for search engines they most likely tell search bots to ignore following the link to your site. So basically they send bots to look at your forum. Not all will go directly to the linked content. Some will stay behind at the entrance to look at the home page, and some may explore other areas. This would be all based the on criteria assigned to the bots by the initiating site. Now not saying this is exactly what is happening, but is a high probable scenario. So far nothing seems to be occurring that is out of the ordinary. Nothing is wrong.
