Q: How does the Search Engine find websites?
A: There are two ways a search engine can find a website to
add to its database.The first method is to accept submissions from
website designers and optimisers.Most search engines have a "submit
your URL" section inviting submissions from Internet users.
The second, and least obvious method of finding websites is to
send a "spider" to follow each and every link on, off,
and through a website. New URLs encountered by the spider will be
added to the database. In this way, some search engines will grow
very rapidly. |
