As part of a time-limited trial, yesterday we removed the www.bbc.co.uk & www.bbc.com robots.txt "block" on *one* GenAI crawler.

Here's a graph of total daily requests from that 1 GenAI crawler by content-type. You'll note, they've retrieved ~460k web pages in ~16 hours, so a mean of ~28,750 web pages per hour. They'll likely pull ~690k pages today, ~32GB egress.

Whilst this is a drop in the ocean versus our other traffic, I can easily see how this could sink a smaller website.

So I just watched this https://youtu.be/4iuhWVWVRNk and now I wonder if lazy-loading links on a news-publisher homepage and lazy-loading content on a news article page is a good idea (if done right for performance reasons), or if things are a little bit different for news crawling and indexing? @johnmu @geekonaut

"The articles will remain in the index for the regular 30-day period." https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/sitemaps/news-sitemap#:~:text=The%20articles%20will%20remain%20in%20the%20index%20for%20the%20regular%2030%2Dday%20period.

Is this still valid? Which index does the documentation refer to? @johnmu
