How Do Search Engine Spiders Work?
Search engines deploy bots known as "spiders" or "crawlers" to navigate the web. They visit web pages, follow links, and gather information about the content. The data collected is then used to index pages and determine their relevance to user queries.
- Crawling: The initial process where spiders visit web pages and discover new links.
- Indexing: Once a page is crawled, the information is stored in a massive database known as the index.
- Ranking: Finally, search engines use complex algorithms to rank indexed pages based on relevance and quality when users enter search queries.
