Adjusting Crawl Rate Through Webmaster Tool

[kabirthapar]

I wanted to know whether changing the crawl rate in Google's Webmaster Tools really made a difference? Does Adjusting the crawl rate has any effect on ranking? Kindly help

I actually did not play with crawl rate settings in Google Webmasters tools. I prefer to set it as "Let Google determine it" However if you are familiar with how Google crawl sites and have deep knowledge in it than you can go with custom settings. Otherwise leave it as automatic.

I have tried doing this on a couple of my websites but it really didn't seem like anything changed so I went back to the deault settings that Google has.
