Goggle and other search engine bots crawl millions of sites per day. Among them there are some high volume news sites which keep on adding fresh content! Search engine bots love fresh and unique content and visit these sites many times in a day. On the other hand there are some sites which are hardly get updated and bots does not visit them too often.
How Regularly Google Bot Should Visit Your Site?
If your website is regularly updated and have quality content then ideally Google should visit and crawl its pages at least once in a day.

Whenever you make any changes on your site you must update last modified date of modified pages in your sitemap and ping it to search engines. Pinging site map is equally important as updating it’s just like an invitation that you sent to search engines to come and see the recent changes in your sitemap.
