Search Engines
Search engine robots and spiders
Search engine submissions is the process of introducing your web pages to the various search engine and Internet directories. Knowing how and where to submit to the search engine is key in successful submission.
Each time an indexing source like a search engine or online directory service is asked to review and include your web site’s contents within it's listings, it sends out user agents to analyze every aspect of your web site. The agents are often referred to as "spiders", "bots", and "crawlers". While many may argue that these agents have different names but their basic function is always the same.
Upon their initial visit to your web site, these agents will start at your web sites front door or index page and begin looking for where it can go from there. Following text links, these applications are able to compose a map of your entire web site and it's linked contents. Once this map of your site has been created, it can begin analyzing your various pages contents and look for what information is offered.
A rank is then assigned to each page based upon the criteria that these automated applications are programmed to look for. This is what is referred to as the search engines algorithm.
Some of the best search engine available are Google, Yahoo and MSN
