Hi!

1. I don't think the spider would help you here. Links SQL is designed to be categorized. Currently there is no way for a user to submit a link to the spider, except through Links SQL (which would require placing it in a category). I don't think it would be too hard to add an interface so links could get submitted directly to the spider.

2a. Yes, the spider parses out the Title, Meta Description and Meta Keywords into separate columns.
2b. You can cut and paste a list of URL's (As long as you like) into a textarea box to seed the spider with links to search.
2c. I understand what you mean about Links SQL and importing, but not sure what you mean about the spider?

3. Not really, as there is no user interface for users to directly add to the spider, however this could get changed.

I'm not sure if it's the best fit, as I still don't understand your process exactly, and what you are trying to achieve in the end. =)

Cheers,

Alex
