How do search engines work?
A search engine is made of three basic components:
A Spider or Robot
An automated browser, it
searches the web for new
websites, or changes to
websites, and then strips
out the text content
A Storage System
or Database
A record of all the pages
viewed by the Spider
A Matching Process or
Relevancy Algorithm
The rules that tell the search
engine how to determine
what would be relevant to
your search
