Hi, I installed the Facebook Like button Javascript version on my website on December 15th.
Take a look at this report from Google Webmaster Central.
Crawl stats
Googlebot activity in the last 90 days
The crawl stats are from Googlebot which as far as I know doesn't execute Javascript. Could the Facebook Like Javascript code, "The XFBML version" be related to large spike in Time spent downloading a page?
(By the way the huge spike in November was caused by a mistake where every image request was getting a 301.)
I'm not sure what caused the spike to go down by half somewhere in December. It may have been related to a faulty
setting in web.config. I'm at a loss as to what I can do about this or even how to tell if this is my problem or Googlebots crawl problem.
Here is the Facebook code I am using to create the like button. It is right after the opening body tag
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({appId: 'xxxxx', status: true, cookie: true,
xfbml: true}); };
(function() {
var e = document.createElement('script'); e.async = true;
e.src = document.location.protocol +
'//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js';
document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e);
}());
`
and this creates the like box:
<fb:like show_faces="false"></fb:like>
If the Javascript can't be the problem any ideas on where to start looking would be appreciated.
