Disguise Your Browser as a Google Bot and Get Free Access to Pay Sites

Did you know that most registration sites give Google VIP access to their restricted content? Reason being, these sites want their content indexed in Googles vast search database to attract and receive more hits. Why should Google be the only one to get this VIP treatment? Here is how, using your existing browser, that you can receive similar treatment.

First you have to trick the website that you are visiting that you are actually a Google bot. To do that you need to modify your browsers ‘User Agent.’ If you use FireFox download User Agent Switcher (UAS) to start the process.(from addons.mozilla.org)

Then you need to alter the UAS settings (Tools - User Agent Switcher - Options - Options - User Agents - Add) to the following:

Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html)

Simple as that! Now you should be able to access forums and news sites that previously required registrations.
