Is this a manual review - webmasterworld member points Google employee visit

A webmasterworld member sees a visit from Mountain view Google's IP checking site: search for his sub domain. If you don't know what a site: search is its used to check the pages indexed by Google for that particular domain.

For example site:www.searchenginegenie.com will reveal all pages indexed for searchenginegenie.com , this is the regular method used in Google.



Kidder says : "I just noticed a Mountain View IP running a fairly specific site: query on one of our subdomains. I checked the IP and it came up as Google. Does this sound like a manual review? "



Tedster Google forum Administrator replies a Yes. Since he is a veteran in this industry we can believe his words. I feel manual visits from Google is just normal especially for a webmaster site like ours since we do write articles on Google and use tools that are using Google to deliver results.
