For me I only get 60 visitors a day so doing a browsershot on it make a big difference to my stats.

Do they not do any boosting in search results to sites that people spend a lot of time on, or a lot of people go to? Do they flag you if you get too many bounce? Like I said, i personaly have no idea, mabey i should go ask this in the SEO forums if i really want to know.

I'm missing something here.

Right! So you're under this latest misconception that somehow search engines know all about the visitors to every single page on every single site on the Internet and "boost" the pages with most visitors.

I wish I knew how such a ridiculous, non-sensical idea gets spread around as a fact!

I check with chrome, firefox, opera, safari on my computer, when I am done with the website I check it with browsershots.org,

I find this software helpful, it installs multiple versions of internet explorer - it isnt compatable with vista tho

Litmusapp.com is really good.

+1... It's good to check on a variety of browsers to eliminate any hickups.

I don't think automating it is a good idea. Manually is still the best, but time consuming. I test most of my sites at work, parents house etc as well. Even in the same broswer I get different results. It's a good learning experience

I use Firefox and i check my sites from that

there are many way to check site but I always check with Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome , Opera
