Can you consider BOTS like msnbot webcrawler, Organic Traffic???

I mean when someone states Organic Traffic, could you consider the webcrawlers like googlebots, msnbots, Unique Visitors to a website as ORGANIC Traffic???

    Nope.

    Focus on getting human visitors -- TARGETED human visitors. Search engine bots and un-targeted aliens from another planet don't count.

      Of course you can! That's if bots are your website's target audience. Did you create a website for bots to enjoy? Do they have credit cards? What kind of stuff do they like to buy?

        Everyone knows that the "bot market" is too big of a market to make any money in. You really need to focus in on a niche, like Google bots or Alexa bots.

    Ok I am confused
    I purchased a site where the person stated All Organic Traffic
    Site gets about 500 unique visitors per day.
    Well Day 1, they appears to be mostly MSNBOT and other webcrawlers.

    So are these considered unique organic visitors
    Are they real people possibly make a purchase or is it a BOT?

      You should have requested access to the server logs before you purchased.

    I did, but did not noticed msnbot, yahoo slurp etc...
    So if I purchased a site which gets 95% of its traffic from MSNbot and other crawlers, I purchased a site 95% non-real human vistors???
