Does it have a place to monitor Google bots' activities on my site such as how much traffic its produced, visits? Any charts? Mentioning to which website pages are having the most visits and total pages number...etc

Below are the few things you can take care to increase Crawl rate:

- Make sure you have unique title and meta tags for each of your pages.

- Always keep your content updated.

- Adjust the crawl speed via Google Webmaster tools.

- Keep the page load time as low as possible.

Well, you have two options that I know of.

1) you can analyze the log files but that might be hard and very time consuming to do.
2) the easier option. You can easily track and see the Googlebots activity inside your Google Analytics tool.

I would personally just go with the second option. If you have any issues understanding how to do it just say and I'll be happy to help you out :)

Also, I wouldn't bother with the linked Googlebot Bling Plugin because if you look at it, you can see that it's very outdated.
