This is not an article for SEO dummies, so I presume we all know what search engines are. A search engine like Google which happens to be the God of all SEs has four major operations involved for it to provide its users the credible research results when they look for information on it. You might be confused on how these search engines can figure out which sites are credible and which ones are not. They do this through a process called crawling. These SEs run an automated program where 'spiders' or 'bots' crawl the pages and documents in the World Wide Web by using the hyperlink structure of the web. It has been revealed that out of 20 billion pages spiders crawl about 8 to 10 billion of it. Next to the crawling part is the indexing. When all the pages are crawled, some of them valuable ones can be indexed or stored for example in Google's giant database of documents that make up the SEs index.Eric Rockefeller]]> search engine optimization]]> SEO]]> Google]]> crawling]]> spiders]]> bots]]> indexing]]> Findal]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Way-Search-Engines-Work/492913 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Way-Search-Engines-Work/492913
