Searching The Internet Without Seach EnginesWritten by Thad Collins
The World Wide Web contains more than ten million websites with thousands more being added daily from all over world, and search engines are tasked with presenting most relevant pages based on search criteria entered. Finding a large and popular site like www.irs.gov is easy because it is related to a large agency, but a small site like mine www.consumermortgagereduction.com would be impossible without use of search engines. The task of finding a website that relates to a specific subject would be almost without use of search engine, yet they perform this task with relative ease using tools that may be unknown to most users of search engines.The first of these tools utilize by search engines are web-crawlers; they search sites based on meta-tags, or hidden descriptions of site encoded in head of web page. By using web-crawlers to spider websites, search engine does not have to search entire webpage to return results, just first few lines of code. The majority of code web-crawlers spider is contained in section or top of web page, and search engines use this information to list relevant search terms results. Meta-bots and Google-bots are used by search engines in same way that web-crawlers are deployed, and only difference is that bots read first lines of text that is visible on browser of user. Meta-bots and Google-bots are useful in providing content oriented sites with a quick description of site, and is use to match relative words in a search engine query.
