BeTheBot – Search As If You Are A Bot
By Josh | July 8, 2007
You don’t always find what you want searching on a search engine like Google. A lot of the time you will find something that you think is what you want, but it ends up being a site that just wants to sell you something. BeTheBot attempts to solve this problem by putting you in the search bot’s shoes. What bots do is index the internet, and when a website sees a bot then it may reveal more information to the bot than if it knew you were human. A lot of websites try to trick you into registering or buying a product before you can see what they have, but bots already see what they have.
If you get a result on a search engine that looks like what you are searching for, but it ends up being something totally different, then you might want to try out BeTheBot. I’m not sure that this will work on every site, but I’m sure you can find some hidden things.
