Basic SEO Terms


Basic SEO Terms

HI all, Today I am going to discuss some basic SEO terms which you will come across them again and again.

Some of them are:- Crawlers , Robots , Spiders , Index , Google bot , Yahoo Slurp , MSN bot.

Do you have any idea about these terms?

You are about to know about them.

A crawler also know as a “robot” or “spider”, is an automatic software program that runs at many search engines, reads sites’ content, analyzes it, and inserts them into the index (or collects information for later insertion into the index) .

In the above definition a term Index is used.

The search engine crawler (or spider) visits pages on the web and ‘reads’ them. It passes that information back where it is stored in an index. When someone searches for a term, that search term is looked up in the index and results are displayed accordingly .

Thus Index can be termed as a list of websites sorted by the Search Engine according to the relevancy of the website for a particular keyword.

Now lets go through the terms Google bot , Yahoo Slurp , MSN bot.

Googlebot is the search bot software used by Google, which collects documents from the web to build a searchable index for the Google search engine.

Yahoo Slurp is a web crawler from Yahoo! that obtains content for the Yahoo! Search engine. Slurp is based on search technology Yahoo! Acquired when it purchased Inktomi.

MSN bot is the search bot software used by MSN, which collects documents from the web to build a searchable index for the MSN search engine.
