That's only for after they load a page, e.g. Google follows a post link(or anything else with different/extra parameters) you are telling it the base URL so it only indexes the original. It won't know it's duplicate until it loads it.Doesn'tlink rel="canonical"neutralize this issue? I thought it should.
Bots will follow any link. That's part of the issue because you are creating an infinite amount of URL's to crawl when they aren't named bot added to bots list.
I had a site I was working on and I think it was Claudebot with about 2000 guest entries and it was running really slow. Adding it to bots list of course removed it from guests list and the slowness immediately stopped, that wasn't because it stopped making requests. Something is inefficient when all these ID's are created in the sessions table.
Is there any reason for guests to have sessions to begin with? I know you can enable topic making for guests but beyond that do they need them?
