list of links are sitelinks

Search engine websites like Google, MSN are showing list of links in their search results page at the first position of first page.
The links that sometimes are seen as a set of links under the main site are Sitelinks. These Sitelinks are sometimes shown by search engines as a search results for site. The Sitelinks help users to see list of links in that site.

The figure above shows the sitelinks of photoos.net, the popular photo collection(sports and events) site from Netherlands.

Google generated sitelinks are automated and the site should be well structured to meet the Google sitelinks algorithm containing at least of three sitelinks so as to appear on search results.

web spider, crawler

web spider is an automated and methodological program that crawl the internet, programmed for task specific purpose and so is built in that specific way.
Some web spiders are developed to find email address in web pages also known as Email harvesting Crawlers, to check links in web pages, to find inactive links, validating links, validating HTML.
Spider is also developed to find the content from web pages and generate statistics or create copy of content from web pages. Especially search engines use web crawling to provide up-to-date.

different results from AWStats and Google Analytics

I found different results from Google Analytics and AWStats web analytics, and just did not notice that before today. I was happy to see the results from AWStats and at the same time worried by seeing the results from Google Analytics. AWStats provides over counted statistical data whereas it seemed that Google Analytics was not providing all the data.

I am thinking that following might be reasons for difference in statistical results from Google Analytics and AWStats:-

1. AWStats calculate the visitor for less time span where as Google Analytics calculate visitors for long time period thus reducing visitor count.
2. Automated spams, robots have affects in executing the AWStats whereas Google Analytics statistics are not affected.
3. Other java scripts interfering Google tracking code and turned off cookies would trouble Google Analytic for tracking results.
4. Google Analytics counts the results only if the pages are loaded fully. Navigating away without pages being fully loaded means data is not collected for that action as tracking code would not be able load to operate.

Also, I got something from Google Analytics Help Center,
