ChatGPT crawled my site 5,960 times yesterday. Googlebot came 320 times.

I started logging bot traffic by user agent this week. Six days of data:

ChatGPT 28,842 retrievals. Bing 6,430. Perplexity 2,286. Googlebot 1,744. Claude 623.

AI crawlers hit the site about 4× more than search crawlers, and ChatGPT alone outpaces Googlebot more than 16 to 1.

The part I didn't expect: Bing crawls me 3.7× more than Google, and Copilot is my second-biggest citation source at 127. My two heaviest crawlers are my two biggest citation sources, and Googlebot — the one everyone optimizes for — is the lightest of the five.

If you're chasing AI citations, Bing Webmaster Tools is probably worth more of your attention than it's getting.

Four months in: 4.89M Google impressions, 4,260 clicks, 468 citations across six AI engines, DR 30, $0 on ads.

Curious whether anyone else is logging by user agent, and whether the ChatGPT-to-Googlebot ratio looks similar on other sites.
