Noel,
I've done a bit of research and I don't think they have such issues.
Several folks are doing similar things very publicly (the website is
aware of it) and it doesn't seem to be a problem. Usually if
something is disallowed you'll find it referenced very clearly in
their user forums.
For instance, images and words that are disallowed on your products :-)
If somebody does something and it's considered bad by the company,
it's usually well documented for others to find and read about.
So I think I'm okay along this path. We're all in the business to
make money and if we, the shopkeepers, find ways to improve our
sales, then the company that supports us makes more money, too :-)
If they were smart they'd be offering us built in tools so we
wouldn't have to roll our own. But you know, there's nothing better
than Rev for rolling your own!
Keep that doggie rolling...
Shari
Yes, something like what you are describing could easily be confused
with a DOS attack.
DOS attacks are done by flooding a server with requests for webpages
to the point that the server crashes due to its inability to process
all the requests.
Even if you are not considered a DOS attack, the company may not
appreciate the bandwith that is being used for you to continually
index their site and may deny your IP address access at some point.
