Just now I got an e-mail from my hosting saying my site is a 80% bandwidth. So I checked out my Awstats through cpanel. it claims on the robots/spiders table that Googlebot has hit my site 3579+12 times with bandwidth usage of 779.81MB of my 1000MB bandwidth. (and just to answer some questions I have a resellers account so I can raise the bandwidth as high as 30GB. I just have it low so that I have room for other websites.) Now don't get me wrong I don;t mind Google Crawling my site. Is there a way I can view what going on at Google HQ to cause so much bandwidth and this has happened the last several months and I have others domain I think this happened to as well. Any help would be appreciated.
