Changing the crawl rate.

Hey!

Has anyone seen any impact on changing the crawl rate for certain pages on their site?

Did the more important pages with a higher priority change in rankings? Did the least important pages drop?

Was there anything that you could take away from the test?

Patrick Rabanser: I don't think that just the Crawling rate is a ranking factor, neither would the crawling rate by itself impact on high or less important pages.
