• WEB CRAWLER:
Web Crawler is also known as a search engine bot, web robot, or web spider. It plays an essential role
in search engine optimization (SEO) strategy. It is mainly a software component that traverses on the web,
then downloads and collects all the information over the Internet.
Ex- Google bot is the most popular web crawler.

• DATABASE:
The search engine database is a type of Non-relational database. It is the place where all the web
information is stored. It has a large number of web resources. Some most popular search engine
databases are Amazon Elastic Search Service and Splunk.

using the database.

STAGES IN WORKING OF SEARCH
ENGINES
• Stage 1: CRAWLING
This stage involves scanning the sites and obtaining information about
everything that is contained there: page title, keywords, layout, pages that it
links to. This task is performed by special software robots,
called “spiders” or “crawlers”.

• Stage 11: INDEXING


Indexes are the huge storage facilities in which the copy of each web page
founded by the crawler is stored. This information about web pages is used to
provide answers to users for their queries.
• Stage 111: RANKING AND RETRIEVAL
This is the final stage in which the search engine provides the most useful and relevant answers in a
particular order in response to a search query submitted by the user. Search engines use algorithms to
improve the search results so that only genuine information could reach the users.
