    In robots.txt, for example, look in http://tntu.net/robots.txt

    Code:
    User-agent: Slurp
    Crawl-delay: 240
    You may want to try 60 for a few days, then 120, the only thing that reduced 30-40 slurp agents to the current 9 was using a crawl delay of 240.

    I'll start with a delay of 60. Let's see what happens.

    uh oh... yahoo slurp presence decreased, but today I couldn't see googlebot not google adsense crawling.

    Plus, the sitemap stats are showing that googlebot indexed just 4 pages in the last 24 hours, from an average of 45K.

    I'll remove that line.

    Edit: Google Webmaster says:

    We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap. Please ensure your Sitemap follows our guidelines and can be accessed at the location you provided and then resubmit.
    I believe that my robots.txt was the reason.
